A Tiny Action to Amplify Equality
Each day, choose to share a post, article, project, quote, or achievement by a woman—on LinkedIn, Instagram, Twitter, your team Slack, or even in conversation. This simple act helps rebalance visibility in a world where women’s voices are often underrepresented in media, leadership, and public life.
It’s a small digital habit with the power to push forward Sustainable Development Goal 5: Gender Equality.
Why This Matters
- In news media, only 24% of people heard, read about, or seen in the news are women (Source: World Economic Forum).
- Less than 30% of global STEM researchers are women, and yet their contributions often go unrecognized (Source: UNESCO).
- LinkedIn found that men receive 22% more visibility and engagement on professional posts—despite equal qualifications.
- Algorithms amplify what’s already popular. Sharing women’s work increases their digital footprint and discoverability.
How to Start the Habit
- Find a post, article, or idea from a woman creator, entrepreneur, scientist, artist, or advocate.
- Share it on a platform you use—social media, work channel, or even a group chat.
- Add a sentence of support or explanation. Tag the person if appropriate.
- Repeat daily—or even weekly—to build it into your digital routine.
What This Supports
- Visibility equity: Raises women’s voices in male-dominated digital and professional spaces.
- Network impact: Expands access to resources, audiences, and opportunities.
- Civic engagement: Promotes gender-aware discourse in public, academic, and industry communities.
Bottom Line:
Share one woman’s work a day. It takes 30 seconds and shifts digital visibility toward a more equal world.
Start your “Highlight Her Work” habit today—because equality begins with attention.
