    In 18 countries, men can legally forbid their wives from working.

    Even when women do work, the gender pay gap means they aren’t earning as much as men. Globally, women only earn 81 cents for every dollar that men earn. These barriers translate to $172 trillion in lost income potential, the World Bank found.
