    DescriptionDespite the concerted efforts in championing gender equality in the last decade, many societies have yet to achieve this. According to a recent statistic from the World Economic Forum (2020), it would take 257 years for the world to achieve gender equality if no significant intervention is put in place. This daunting statistic tells us that women would never have the opportunity to advance in our lifetime if governments, civil societies and business leaders do not explicitly assist women to excel and break the biases. This article talks about what the remaining biases are and how we could address them.
