Abstract

The theme of gender is largely discussed in private and public arenas, since it concerns
questions connected to the concept of sustainability. It involves political arguments and
requests economic solutions, not only humanistic notions. It is also a complex argument to
study, with many faces and perspectives, connected to religions and social-economic
development of different areas. Today two main visions are facing each other, depending on
South-North/Western and Eastern societies. Governmental and Inter-governmental
organizations are launching programs and laws in order to gain equality and parity between
both sexes in every condition of life, since assuring human rights is a pre-requisite of human
development and development in general. In addition, achieving gender equality and
empowering all women and girls is essential for achieving sustainable development, one of the
post- 2015 sustainable development goals.
