The declared goal of the United Nations is: Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls

Specifically, the aim by 2030 is to achieve the following...
...end all forms of discrimination against all women and girls everywhere.
...ensure women’s full and effective participation and equal opportunities for leadership at all levels of decision-making in political, economic and public life.
...enhance the use of enabling technology, in particular information and communications technology, to promote the empowerment of women.
