ntroduction

Today, 1 in 3 women experience violence in their lifetime; 830 women die every day from preventable pregnancy-related causes; only 1 in 4 parliamentarians worldwide are women; and it will be 2086 before we close the gender pay gap if present trends continue with no action. Gender inequality is rife. As the international community unites around the Sustainable Development Agenda, we owe it to the next generations to strive for a world where women have voice, choice and agency and enjoy the same rights as men.

The Humanities are important because they help individuals understand human experiences, moral values, and cultural diversity. They develop empathy, critical thinking, and ethical awareness, enabling people to make responsible decisions in personal and social life. Through the humanities, humans learn from the past, appreciate different perspectives, and strengthen social harmony in a multicultural society.
