Draft:Gender gap & Gender Inequality


The gender gap refers to measurable differences between men and women in various aspects of life, such as education, employment, income, political representation, and access to resources. It focuses on disparities in opportunities, outcomes, and experiences between genders.

Gender inequality, on the other hand, encompasses a broader concept that includes the systemic and structural discrimination and biases that result in unequal treatment and outcomes for individuals based on their gender. It refers to the unequal distribution of power, resources, and opportunities between men and women, leading to disadvantages and marginalization of one gender group compared to the other.

In summary, while the gender gap highlights specific disparities or differences between men and women in different areas, gender inequality addresses the underlying systemic issues and structures that perpetuate these disparities, leading to unequal treatment and opportunities for individuals based on their gender.
