How do you think the events of the Silk Road, Exploration, Expansion & Enlightenment impact the UN Goal & Kahiau Topic that you chose to study? I think the events that have taken place in the past such as the Silk Road, Exploration, Expansion & Enlightenment heavily impact my UN Goal which is Gender Equality. From early on, society has inflicted gender roles/norms upon humans. We've been told from early on in life what is socially acceptable for someone of a certain gender to do. Though during the Age of Enlightenment, women began to demand equality, natural rights, and liberty amongst both sexes. Ushering in a new, never before seen feminist movement. That with time would evolve into modern day feminism. Also, during the colonial and exploration period of the world. This community was heavily dominated by men with very well known names such as Christopher Columbus or Captain Cooke. Though, there were woman explorers and woman who ran their own businesses during the colonial times.
