SUMMARY:Exhibition | Her Rights: Money\, Power\, Autonomy
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition | Her Rights: Money\, Power\, Autonomy\nIf we are to accomplish the Sustainable Development Goals\, we need to empower women in the economy and close gender gaps. But progress is unacceptably slow. At the current rate\, it will take over 100 years to achieve global gender equality\, according to World Economic Forum. What could we do better\, and are there any successful examples to learn from? Visit the “Her Rights: Money\, Power\, Autonomy” exhibition between 8 March and 2 April 2024 to be inspired. \nJointly organised by the Consulate General of Sweden in Hong Kong\, HKU Libraries and the HKU Gender Studies programme\, the exhibition underlines the need for action in economic gender equality. By raising six interrelated themes\, the exhibition discusses challenges and opportunities connected to economic gender equality. With timelines\, it also tells the history of Sweden’s gender equality journey through progressive policy and reform\, legal efforts and a strong women’s movement. \nTo kick off the exhibition and to celebrate the International Women’s Day\, you are also invited to the launch event. Please see below the event details: \nDate: 8 March (Fri)\nTime: 12:30-13:30\nVenue: G/F\, Main Library \nContent: Welcome remarks\, student sharing\, launch ceremony; Swedish refreshments are served after the event \nNote: Seats are limited and are on a first-come-first-served basis. \nFor enquiries\, please write to lib111@hku.hk \n♦ Register for the launch event HERE ♦ \n
