Since the beginning, women have notably participated in different problems like climate change, gender-based violence, and economic recovery. However, even though they lead the world with their successful leadership, the question arises: Are women aware of their possible opportunities?

As per the World Economic Forum, unfortunately, covid-19 has added another 30 years to the disparity in the pay gap. For this, the government of UAE is also taking significant initiatives to educate females about their possibilities and support them for their efforts. For example, the 2018 rule by the UAE government ensures women are paid equally like their male colleagues. Hence as a result and as per the UN’s Gender Inequality Index, UAE ranks at 18th position globally for female empowerment.
