What Does Equality Actually Look Like?

The conversation around women and men tends to focus on the inequalities faced by half the population. We know what the problems are. This time, we'd like to turn it around and look at the issue from the other end: What will equality make possible?

"The world of humanity has two wings - one is women and the other men. Not until both wings are equally developed can the bird fly." ~ Baha’i Writings

If humanity really is flapping on just one wing, what could we accomplish if both wings were strong? We'd love to hear your ideas.

Come help us brainstorm what we, the human race, could accomplish. What kinds of communities could we build? What priorities could we put in place? What kind of future could we create for ourselves if women and men had equal standing in the world?

Come and join us for an exploration of equality:
