The new type of coronavirus pandemic is delaying the time needed to achieve equality between men and women by more than an entire generation – privatbankar.hu quotes the report of the World Economic Forum in Davos (WEF).

According to the study, there are large differences between countries, but in the current situation, the WEF estimates that it will take 135.5 years for men and women to become socially equal. According to the 15th edition of the WEF report, this is 36 years more than it was before the pandemic. With so much time, more would be needed for women and men to become equal in economic, political, health or educational terms. (privatbankar.hu)
