|a Gender equality is not only a matter of social justice but also good economics. It is of foremost importance to women ' s well-being and development. Discrimination means losses in productivity and lower welfare of women, their families, and society at large. Although the gender gap is narrowing in education, health, and many other areas, women are still less educated then men, work more hours, and are paid less. The reasons why gender disparities persist are complex, having to do with social and institutional norms, relationships within households, and even lack of information about the benefits of educating and employing women. Despite the weight of social and cultural factors, public policy can influence women ' s status and well-being. Governments have a leading role in widening the opportunities avaiable to women and extending the services that are vitally important to them. This overview, based on a World Bank report, outlines what governments and development agencies can do to work toward greater gender equality - one of the best investments a society can make. Public policy can affect investments in health, education, and infrastructure through laws and regulations. It can also affect land ownership, financial services, and access to employment. Not least important, public policies can affect marcoeconomic performance and create a favorable climate for economic development.
