Gender-based violence, lack of equal opportunities for economic activities, and deprivation from political participation and representation have been on the long list of such challenges. This event brings together experts in the field to share insights and analyses on the persistent gender inequalities across the region.
This event is part of the Mediterranean Dialogues (MED) Panels by the Italian Institute for International Political Studies (ISPI).
