Action., highlights that - globally - women and girls have just 64% of the legal rights of men and that in nearly 70% of countries surveyed, women encounter more barriers to justice than men. At the UCL School of Management, we remain committed to championing gender equality and empowering diverse voices. Today, we spotlight members of our community whose work, leadership and lived experiences contribute to a more inclusive and equitable future.
