It will take at least 67 more years to close the average gender equality gap in traditional news media worldwide if everything stays the same, a global media monitoring project revealed.
In 2015, the period remaining to achieve complete gender equality in news media based on the Gender Empowerment Measure (GEM) index was 72 years, thus the 2020 result signals consistency in the slow cumulative pace of change over time.
