Briefly explain gender inequality in relation to Gender Base Violence and provide examples
Gender inequality refers to the unequal treatment or perceptions of individuals based on their gender. Gender-based violence is a form of gender inequality that encompasses acts of violence, coercion, or discrimination that are inflicted on individuals based on their gender.
Examples of gender-based violence include domestic violence, sexual assault, harassment, and child marriage. These forms of violence disproportionately affect women and girls and are often used as tools to control and dominate them. Gender-based violence is rooted in societal norms and beliefs that perpetuate the idea that women are inferior to men and therefore can be subjected to violence and abuse. Gender inequality perpetuates this cycle of violence by creating power imbalances that allow for the justification and perpetration of such acts.
