Paragraph text
To prevent any violation in cultural and family life, the State must challenge cultural discourse and cultural norms that discriminate against women and perpetuate structural discrimination, taboos or stereotypes based on gender. Attitudes and behaviours towards women must be changed, and women's access to employment, education and finance, as well as the safety of their homes and children, must be ensured by the State in order to reduce gender inequalities.
