Womens and Poverty - Bree Mia - Bog

Women in developing nations lose $9 trillion year as a result of economic gender disparity; this amount, in addition to giving women greater spending power and improving the lives of their families and communities, would also provide the economy a significant boost.Closing the gap reduces poverty, according to research from numerous areas and nations, and countries with higher levels of gender equality tend to have higher income levels.For instance, between 2000 and 2010, an increase in the proportion of women in paid employment in Latin America was responsible for around 30% of the region's overall decline in poverty and income disparity. For women's rights, poverty reduction, and broader development goals to be met, it is crucial to support women in gaining access to quality, decent jobs and improving their standard of living.This can be accomplished in large measure by empowering women economically. We require a human economy that benefits both men and women, as well as all people, not just the wealthy few.
