Gender equality in religion refers to the equal treatment and opportunities for individuals of all genders within religious practices and institutions. Many religious traditions have historically placed men in leadership roles, often limiting women's participation in rituals, decision-making, and community leadership. Efforts for gender equality in religion aim to challenge these norms and promote inclusivity. Various religious groups, such as Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, are increasingly addressing gender disparities. Some denominations are ordaining women as clergy, while others are advocating for equal rights within their communities. These movements seek to create a more equitable environment for all believers, regardless of gender.
