Icelandic Women Unite: Striking for Gender Equality and Closing the Pay Gap

Women in Iceland, including the prime minister, are set to go on strike for the seventh time to protest gender inequality. The strike, known as the "Women's Day Off," aims to raise awareness about wage discrimination and gender-based violence faced by women in Iceland. The strike has the support of various organizations and unions, and men are encouraged to take on additional responsibilities to support the strike. The Icelandic government is also focusing on researching the wage disparity between male-dominated and female-dominated professions.
