Along with the recommendations the Council is also calling on everyone to act differently.

The National Advisory Council on Women and Girls (NACWG) was established in 2017 to advise Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon on what was needed to tackle gender inequality in Scotland.

Over the course of 2018, it consulted a range of stakeholders of all genders across the country, including businesses and third sector organisations, in order to gather the evidence needed to develop its 2018 report and recommendations.
