Gender equality and justice concern us all. Equal representation of men and women at all levels and in all areas represents an important step towards genuine equality. Texts and images describe realities and also shape our thinking. By taking gender equality into account when using texts and images, we are helping to ensure that both genders are represented – in everyday life and in our minds.
