I recognize a lot of these points in the Netherlands too! :-) Although we're STEPS ahead of other countries, even other European countries, there's still a LOT of work to do.
There's by the way a very much misunderstood difference between equity and equality. This picture explains it best (I don't know the original source):
It applies to a lot of situations. Equality does not mean we are the same. Equity means we do however get the tools we need to be able to perform in the same way.
That's a HUGE difference.
these images do really say a lot don't they :-))!
