Se han conseguido algunos avances durante las últimas décadas: más niñas están escolarizadas, y se obliga a menos niñas al matrimonio precoz; hay más mujeres con cargos en parlamentos y en posiciones de liderazgo, y las leyes se están reformando para fomentar la igualdad de género.
A pesar de estos logros, todavía existen muchas dificultades: las leyes y las normas sociales discriminatorias continúan siendo generalizadas, las mujeres siguen estando infrarrepresentadas a todos los niveles de liderazgo político, y 1 de cada 5 mujeres y niñas de entre 15 y 49 años afirma haber sufrido violencia sexual o física a manos de una pareja íntima en un período de 12 meses.
