Are there gender inequalities in Education and Employment in the Caribbean?
True or False: Are there gender inequalities in Education in the Caribbean? The infographic titled "Education Inequalities" explores gender disparities in education and employment across the Caribbean. It highlights notable progress in educational access, with both genders benefiting, especially in primary and secondary education. However, the data reveals that girls generally outperform boys academically, particularly in fields like biology, physics, and IT. On the other hand, boys excel in subjects such as mathematics and economics. A significant concern is the drastic drop in male participation at the tertiary education level, with women enrolling at almost twice the rate of men. This discrepancy raises critical questions about persistent gender gaps in employment and wages, despite women's higher educational achievements. The infographic emphasizes the importance of gender equality in achieving sustainable development goals and full human potential in the Caribbean.
