(LifeSiteNews) — The World Economic Forum (WEF) is pushing for more women to enter the workplace – and more children to go into childcare.
The newly published “Global Gender Gap Report 2025” is part of a global push “towards gender parity,” which means pressuring hundreds of millions of women to the workplace.
The report measures four areas:
- Economic Participation and Opportunity
- Educational Attainment
- Health and Survival
- Political Empowerment
The WEF understands “Economic Participation and Opportunity” to mean complete parity of men and women in employment. This means that men and women should be in employment in the same proportion, regardless of the needs of family life.
The globalist group also demands parity in every industry and field of work, regardless of the well demonstrated different interests and aptitudes that men and women have when it comes to choosing a profession or area of work.
Ideology over facts
The WEF laments that “gender parity” – as they understand it – has never been achieved anywhere in the world. They hold every nation and culture guilty of failure to achieve gender equality, without stopping to ask if universal human experience suggests their ideological framework is wrong.
The new report ranks North America as the region closest to achieving the WEF’s goal and puts the Middle East and North Africa furthest behind. As far as countries go, Iceland tops the ranking, with Pakistan in the lowest place.
Despite acknowledging that “gender parity” has never occurred in the entirety of human history, they insisted that it is a cure for global ills. The report asserts:
One truth remains constant, however: the economic potential of a society depends on whether its people have the equal footing to thrive.
And it insists that “greater balance between women’s and men’s workforce representation” would “support creativity and innovation, address talent and skills shortages, and close wage gaps, amid technology transformation and demographic shifts.”
WEF ideology is based on the falsehood that men and women are the same in every respect. It denies that men and women freely make different choices of work and professions and of the role played in family life.
Rather than recognizing and protecting the different strengths of men and women, the WEF condemns the different work choices of men and women as “gender-based industry segregation.”
They lament that women are overrepresented in some sectors and underrepresented in others. They insist on compete “gender parity” everywhere – more men must become nurses, and more women must become engineers. This will necessarily mean excluding qualified men and women in order to meet artificial DEI quotas.
And in their zeal for making everything conform to their liberal ideology, the globalists ignore the needs of the most vulnerable group of all: children.
No place for children
In the entire report there is no reference to children or their wellbeing. The word does not even appear once. Yet the primary purpose most men and women have in their economic activity is to provide for their families or to put themselves in a position to marry and start a family.
This fundamental human need is ignored by globalists, who see human beings primarily as economic units. Economic liberalism, which is one of the driving forces of the globalist agenda, prioritizes the creation of wealth over the authentic needs of human beings.
Globalists want to see the full employment of both men and women because when both parents are forced into the workplace, companies and governments can pay lower wages. States and global corporations then benefit at the expense of family life.
In this system, it is economically impossible for most families to live on one income, meaning that parents are forced to hand their children over to private or state-run childcare. This further exposes children to indoctrination in the false value system dominant in our culture and weakens the bonds between children and parents.
And, as LifeSiteNews has recently reported, outcomes for children who grow up with their mothers at home are much better than those sent to day care. But strong and healthy families are the last thing that the globalists want to see.
