DID YOU KNOW TOURISM PROVIDES BETTER OPPORTUNITIES FOR WOMEN THAN OTHER SECTORS OF THE ECONOMY?

As in other sectors, women in tourism face a variety of challenges related to their gender. At the same time, tourism offers ways to overcome the gender gap: the number of women employers in tourism almost doubles the one of other sectors.
On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the 1995 Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, the most progressive blueprint ever for advancing women’s rights, @UN Women is raising awareness on the historic Platform and the importance of accomplishing its yet unfulfilled vision: gender equality in all dimensions of life.
