This tool was initially inspired by the desire to find a means to empower women. As we continued to discuss issues faced by women worldwide, the gender pay gap arose as a topic that is often mentioned but rarely taken action upon. The complacency reinforces the discrimination women often face in the labour market, and we decided to take action.
This website aims to educate and incite action for change in women and men alike by connecting the numbers to people's personal lives and offering action items. As a group of women pursuing primarily male-dominated professional fields, our narrative resonates with women worldwide and we hope that the awareness can drive impact and inspire change for the better. After all, the future is female.
The data used in our project comes from The World Economic Forum, specifically the Labor Force Statistics from the Global Gender Gap Report of 2021. Specific earnings numbers were based on the reported Median Annual Earnings of Men and Women.

Women in STEM fields tend to face more obstacles and challenges than their male counterparts in the labour market.
Household work is still mostly assumed to be the responsibility of females, so women who work in the formal labor market are expected to perform care at home as a "second shift".
Males are often perceived to be the breadwinner of the family, so the man's often takes precedence over a woman's.
Women often face harassment - ranging from derogatory comments to threats of assault - in the workplace, and it is hard for them to address these issues, especially if the perpetrator is their superior.
