Gender equality

Campaigning for gender equality empowers young people to create a fair and equitable world. By challenging stereotypes and advocating for gender parity, they can contribute to a society where everyone has equal opportunities.

What are they doing?

The UK Parliament passed the Equality Act in 2010 which makes sex a protected characteristic, whilst also prohibiting sexual harassment and workplace discrimination. The Senedd is committed to gender equality in Wales, and advocates for an equal sharing of power, resources and influence for all women, men and non-binary people. The Welsh Government has created the Advanced Gender Equality in Wales Plan which sets out its priorities for the short and medium term.
