Gênero na agenda 2030 e a manutenção do sistema patriarcal

Abstract

This paper identifies and analyzes the main gaps about gender in the 2030 agenda from the point of view of the patriarchy theory. Therefore, it lists some problems which are about issues not addressed in the commitment text and those poorly debated without considering the gender inequalities roots, bringing some strategic questions about Gender Mainstreaming, but also about the actors’ approaches who took part in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) elaboration and in the neoliberalism macroeconomic politics inside the agenda 2030. All this patriarchal conjuncture, that began many years ago, is still present through these gaps – even if subtly – in the 2030 agenda, leading to ephemeral results and not to long-term ones. As a result, that gender thematic in the 2030 agenda does not consider the context experienced by different women, prioritizes economic issues over the women debate and opportunities over results. Consequently, the SDG does not take into consideration the gender inequality caused by the patriarchal systems which affects both men and women.
