N2  - Gender inequality persists in all aspects of New Zealand society – from health, safety and economic wellbeing, to education, influence and decision making. It negatively impacts businesses, government, families and the community, as well as individuals. Research shows we’ll be better off socially and economically if we’re gender equal. It’s a basic human
right. Many organisations and individuals already know this, and there is substantial work underway to eliminate violence against women, the gender pay gap, and to increase women in leadership. But the statistics show our progress is slow and patchy and our current approach is flawed.The following
paper aims to build understanding of the issue and spark discussion and focus on what needs to happen to achieve equality. It calls for New Zealanders to come together so we can take a big step forward. (from the executive summary).
