[20-18] A study to derive future policy directions based on gender equality issues and predictions

 Gender equality is essential to the full realization of human rights, democracy and social justice, an important value that our society should aim for, and a prerequisite for a sustainable future in terms of human development, economic growth, and population reproduction.

 This study aims to forecast the level of gender equality in Korean society in the long-term future (2040) in consideration of future macro-social changes, and to present long-term policy tasks and directions to improve it.

 An analysis of the trend of gender equality in Korean society over the past 20-30 years was performed, and policy tasks and directions were suggested to improve the level of gender equality in the future through the prospect of gender equality as of 2020 and the prediction for 2040.

 The analysis of gender equality trends over the past two decades found that there had been gradual improvements in areas such as public decision making, economic resource allocation, unpaid labor distribution, gender norms, gender discrimination awareness, sexual violence, and more.

 As an effect of macro-environmental change on gender equality, it is expected that positive effects will be seen in the political domain (change of traditional political paradigm, popularization of feminism, revitalization of social minority politics) and in the social domain (change of family, low birthrate).

 Based on the analysis of the expected level of gender equality in 2040, an overall level of less than 50 points is seen, but the improvement of the level of gender equality in public decision-making is expected to progress at the fastest rate compared to the present, while reductions in gender violence are expected to progress at the slowest rate. To improve the level of gender equality in the future, short-term policy tasks and long-term policy directions are separately presented.
