Panel discussion:
The Illusion of Equality?

During our previous panel discussions, we elaborated on the aspects of ‘Sexual Reproduction Health and Rights’, while also digging deep into the topic of ‘Masculinity’.

One particular topic that has been here for centuries and which many believe won’t go away anytime soon, is what some call “the myth that is Equality”.

While many have stood up, organizations that were created, awareness sessions and thousands of seminars that were organized, they all end the same way. There is no real answer on whether equality for all will be achieved. or wil it?
Some say it’s a false prophet, some say equality of opportunity vs outcome is a better discussion.

Could it be that equality will forever be an illusion?

Join us as we invite senior professionals to lead us in what promises to be an interesting and fruitful discussion on the ‘Illusion of Equality”.
