In 2020 and 2021, countries with women leaders (such as New Zealand, Germany, and Bangladesh) received global praise for their effective handling of the COVID-19 pandemic; Kamala Harris broke a glass ceiling and became the first female, Black, and South Asian American Vice President of the United States; and Scotland became the first country to allow free and universal access to menstrual products.
While these examples represent some of the incredible strides we’ve made in creating a more inclusive and equitable society, we still have a long way to go. And for that, we advocate for gender equality in our workplace.
