Gender Equality
Gender Equality is when people of all genders have equal rights, responsibilities and opportunities. Equality can be described as sameness.
Gender Equity
Gender equity is the fair treatment of women and men according to their respective needs. Equity is taking differences into account so that everyone has the same chance to succeed.
Gender equity is aiming for a level playing field. We need to have equity before we can have equality.
