What is happening in Afghanistan can be compared with some of the most egregious systems of oppression in recent history. I join all countries & organizations demanding that the de facto authorities remove all discriminatory restrictions against women & girls immediately.

The rights of #Afghan women must remain a global priority. We applaud the decision to hold the Taliban accountable under CEDAW. International action like this is crucial to ensuring women and girls can live, learn, and thrive without fear of oppression and violence.

Australia will join with Germany, Canada and the Netherlands to hold the Taliban to account for its violation of obligations under the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women.

The #GenderPayGap is narrowing, but it's still very real—and it starts early with pocket money. 💰 According to @findercomau 's Parenting Report, boys get an average of $10.30 per week, while girls receive $9.30. That difference adds up to $52 a year!

The gender pay gap starts with pocket money: here's the proof

The gender pay gap is falling, new research shows, but it's very much alive and well – and it starts with pocket money.

Today is Equal Pay Day. Think back to 1 July - 50 days ago. That’s the extra amount women need to work on average to earn the same as men in Australia. That difference doesn’t add up. The gender pay gap can be confusing. But you can take action and WGEA can help.

As #Paris2024 wraps up, we celebrate a historic step toward #genderequality in sports. But the journey isn’t over—there’s still work to be done to fully dismantle systemic biases in sports. Let’s keep the momentum going for true equality in every arena.

Is Paris 2024 really achieving its goals for gender equality?

The Paris games have been labelled the first Olympics to achieve gender equality but are the changes enough?
