gender rights
Equal treatment advocacy
Gender rights are legal protections and social entitlements based on gender—the right to equal treatment regardless of whether one is male, female, or nonbinary.
The term appears in discussions of workplace equality, reproductive autonomy, and transgender protections: The new policy strengthens gender rights in hiring practices.
Often used interchangeably with women's rights, though the broader framing includes all genders.
