Women receive less pay than men for work of equal value in many countries around the globe, including the UNECE region. This gender pay gap persists despite the recognition of the principle of equal remuneration.

Join the meeting to discuss these issues and find out what is done in the UNECE region to accelerate progress towards closing the gender pay gap by 2030.
