As we put together this issue of Utblick Magazine, one word has echoed through our discussions, our research, and our writing—equality. A deceptively simple concept, equality remains one of the most persistent challenges of our time, shaping global politics, economies, and societies in complex and often unpredictable ways. While we may universally acknowledge its necessity, the pathways toward true equality remain contested, fraught with historical injustices, systemic barriers, and diverging ideologies.
In this issue, you will find analyses of inequality concerning women’s rights, health, and pay along with global movements that strive to alleviate such inequalities, making space for women in decision-making roles, a deep dive into the disparities that overtourism has created, and a closer look at class and urban inequalities. We finally address the classes between indigenous people, tribes and governments that are adamant to impose laws and cultural traits.
We recognize that equality is not a destination but an ongoing struggle. It demands critical reflection, engagement, and most importantly, action. As readers of Utblick Magazine, you are part of this conversation. We invite you to question, challenge, and contribute to the discourse, because only through collective effort can we move closer to a world that truly values and upholds the rights of all its inhabitants.
We hope this issue informs, provokes, and inspires you to think about equality in new ways—and perhaps, to take part in shaping a more just future.
Last, but not least, a sincere appreciation for Utblick’s staff writers, editors and illustrator for their commitment to the project.
Happy reading.
