That is why the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion, alongside gender equality and personal development, must sit at the heart of ad tech's future.
We are creating a new idea of masculinity. A new model for what it means to be a man and a dad, he told the several hundred attendees on Tuesday, who were joined by another 2,000 online. In the face of increased far-right rhetoric, and some businesses rolling back D&I [diversity and inclusion] initiatives, and demanding their employees come back into the office full time our voices need to be louder.
My husband "Jake" grew up with three brothers. Their dad always took a week to bring them on a guys-only fishing trip together each year, something they all still do together. Jake and I have a 7-year-old son, "Finn," and a 5-year-old daughter, "Miley." Jake and his dad and brothers began including Finn in their trips when he was Miley's age, and now that she is old enough to understand, Miley is upset about being excluded.
The analysis reveals that inequality between men and women continues across nearly all areas. For example, 64 million more adult women than men suffer from food insecurity, and 9.2% of women and girls (376 million) currently live in extreme poverty, compared with 8.6% of men and boys. Furthermore, in 2024, 46.4% of women of working age were employed, compared with 69.5% of men.
The food and beverage industry has a problem. Despite women making up a significant portion of the workforce in restaurants, bars, and hospitality venues worldwide, fewer than 7% of the world's top restaurants are led by women.

It's certainly clear that the issues of boys and men haven't gone away in the last few years. If anything, they're getting even more attention, which is good when it's the right kind of attention.

Having balls means doing the right thing." But rather than being anti-men, the Ministry hopes reshaping the use of ball-based expressions can be a positive for everyone.
Actually, it turns out Gauff's 2023 championship at the U.S. Open marked the first time the women's singles winner in New York was given a silver cup significantly larger than the one that is used in the postmatch ceremony.

In 2022, at the newly elected Labor government's jobs and skills summit, economist Danielle Wood put women in the workforce front and centre. I can't help but reflect that if untapped women's workforce participation was a massive ore deposit, we would have governments lining up to give tax concessions to get it out of the ground, she said. As the CEO of the Grattan Institute, Wood had long been a powerful advocate for women to create a more productive economy.
