- Abstract
Currently, many countries promote gender equality through legislation. Evidence indicates that enacting laws that support gender equality has effectively increased levels of gender equality worldwide [1]. Thus it is necessary to affirm the role of legislation. However, it is insufficient to pin hopes on enacting laws or policies solely in response to persistent gender inequalities. Firstly, this paper will analyse and summarise the causes of gender inequality from a macro, meso and micro-level perspective, building on a relational framework. Then, it proposes measures to improve gender inequality from different perspectives.
