The 2024 presidential race has heightened discussions around women's reproductive rights, particularly following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, with Vice President Kamala Harris advocating for protective measures and legalizations for abortion and fertility treatments, while former President Donald Trump maintains that abortion laws should be decided at the state level. In South Africa, a panel discussion highlighted the ongoing gender pay gap and its relationship to tax burdens on women, signaling a need for an equitable tax system. As the legal profession marks 100 years of women lawyers, significant disparities remain, particularly in higher judicial positions, where women hold only a small percentage of judgeships. Meanwhile, India continues to grapple with gender justice issues, calling for stronger laws to protect women's and gender minorities' rights, including reproductive rights and workplace safety. The intersection of gender and law remains complex, with progress recognized but further actions required to ensure equality. Overall, addressing these issues across various domains is essential for achieving true gender equity and justice.
