Abstract

Sustainable development of societies, businesses, and, ultimately, countries among other factors, is affected by such important driving force, as gender equality. The paper is dedicated to study of gender situation in science and education. It is demonstrated the process of feminization in theses spheres and the tendency towards gender balance. At the same time gender inequality persists, first of all it concerns science. Issues of low salaries and poor working conditions are acute for women. As demonstrated in the paper the inequality affects women’s everyday lives and social well-being.
