Students Achieving Gender Equality (1010Kb)
UN WOMEN AUSTRALIA’S KIT FOR SECONDARY SCHOOLS 2012
In Australia young women continue to experience violence in their homes, in school yards and in relationships. Cyber bullying has been linked to mental health issues and school drop-out rates. Young women will finish school with higher grades than young men, but will earn 17c less per dollar throughout the course of their careers. Women continue to be under-represented in all leadership roles in our community. UN Women Australia provides opportunities for young people to understand these issues and supports them to make real changes in their communities.
UN Women Australia also works to challenge the attitudes and systems which perpetuate gender inequality across the world. They believe that raising awareness of the issues facing women across the world among school aged students is a first step towards achieving gender equality.
