Abstract: 

Countries should act to empower women and should take steps to eliminate inequalities between men and women as soon as possible by adopting appropriate measures to improve women's ability to earn income beyond traditional occupations, achieve economic self-reliance and ensure women's equal access to the labour market, and social security systems.
