G<\/span>ender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world.<\/p>\n

In line with the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the\u00a0Pacific Asia Travel Association\u00a0(PATA) will advocate for increased gender equality in the travel and tourism industry in 2018. As noted in the SDGs, gender equality is the primary focus of Sustainable Development Goal 5 \u2013 Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.<\/p>\n

The announcement was first made by PATA Chairperson\u00a0Sarah Mathews\u00a0during the PATA Aligned Advocacy Dinner on Monday, November 6 in London, where guests included a group of approximately 150 leading individuals representing the major players in travel and tourism.<\/p>\n

According to the UN, while the world has achieved progress towards gender equality and women\u2019s empowerment under the Millennium Development Goals (including equal access to primary education between girls and boys), women and girls continue to suffer discrimination and violence in every part of the world. Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world.<\/p>\n
