Ending Gender Inequalities 2018

No one should experience bias because of gender, especially when it comes to health, education, economic development, and political participation. RTI International is dedicated to ending gender disparities and inequalities.

Join us for the second Ending Gender Inequalities Conference, 08-09 October 2018 in Johannesburg, South Africa.

The conference will focus on:

• Enhancing knowledge of recent progress in research, practice, and programs to eliminate global gender inequality.
   
• Fostering collaborative networks to share successes and challenges in implementation and sustainability of evidence-based gender programs.
   
• Strategizing solutions to promote gender science that address global disparities and innovative technology when working with key populations.
