On a daily basis, individuals are confronted with a multitude of challenging circumstances, including unfair treatment, interpersonal conflicts, and acts of aggression. The issue of gender equality is particularly pertinent in the present era, as it is evident that all individuals should be afforded equal rights, the right to self-realisation and self-affirmation, and the right to protection. The objective of this study is to provide a comprehensive account of the issues and achievements pertaining to gender equality and the fulfilment of women's rights. The study employed a range of methodological approaches, including theoretical analysis, synthesis, and generalisation; empirical sociological survey and description; and generalisation. The theoretical framework is as follows: The study concentrates on the pivotal issues of the gender system, its evolution, and the realisation of women's rights in diverse global contexts, including Europe. The authors conducted an in-depth analysis of the core issues and accomplishments in this domain. The sociological survey thus revealed the attitudes of Ukrainians towards the phenomenon of gender equality and women's rights, their understanding of the characteristics of the concept, and the legislative basis for its development. The findings of the research demonstrate the necessity for the establishment of a unified global system of gender influence. This will ensure the efficacy of achieving equality between the sexes and facilitate daily life for other marginalised groups in a more expedient manner. The article illustrates that the mere adoption of a legislative framework and inclusion in various international programmes are insufficient for the effective addressing of the issue of gender equality. It is imperative that the general public is made aware of the significance of gender transformation. It is essential to motivate and prepare the population for these changes. Furthermore, the collection and processing of statistical information on gender issues must be more efficient.
