This course was entirely relevant and not condescending and really engaging. The idea of presenting some of the videos by two presenters was quite interesting and made the conversation even more interesting. I can say this course had the right level of information for me. Though this course hasn’t covered everything yet it gave me everything I needed to develop a good understanding of gender inequality (Elvy D, ★★★★★).
It was a highly insightful course and taught me well that any gender can be a victim of inequality but women are the most hit because of factors like family, cultural biases, society, stereotypes in the workplace, and more. These factors have consciously and unconsciously played a vital part in creating gender roles. I would like to thank FutureLearn for this highly engaging course (Helen M, ★★★★★).
I really enjoyed learning from this course as it taught me so much about inequality in a wider context. The course even had material in it to talk about how to tackle this situation. The discussion and questions were quite thought-provoking and the best part of the entire course was being able to read other people’s comments (Lola C, ★★★★★).

Learner’s Career Benefits:

This course was not only good but easy to understand and the entire material was presented in an interesting manner. I am happy to have found this course as it has taught me different ways to treat women at my workplace. I have seen many of my men workers looking down upon the women employees and I think this needs to stop today (Ayusnita W, ★★★★★).
Taking this course has been a great and enjoyable journey for me. I would like to thank the entire team for coming up with this course.

My perspective has changed after this course (Joseph O, ★★★★★).

Learner’s Suggestions/Recommendations:

Though the course was well organized and interesting yet it was only based on Western experiences and is not inclusive of other realities.
To be honest I really value what I learned from this course but I was literally struggling with the presenters who seemed to be just reading the course. It felt like someone was reading a book to me. I just think the instructors could have changed their delivery strategy.

Is this Course worth taking?

We believe this was an excellent, action-oriented, and thought-provoking course that explained a lot about gender inequality in detail. The course had real-life examples that explained how most of the gender inequality problems originate from home and especially in African settings. This course has the ability to capacitate one’s knowledge and should be taken by all interested.
