In the context of gender equality and social issues in general, I'd say 'progress' is more natural-sounding option (than 'advances'), at least for a US readership.
progress and setbacks toward/in (achieving) gender equality

Me alegro, Mónica, de que te haya servido.
Y claro, 'equity' (que veo que utilizas en tu tradu para el glosario) sirve perfectamente también e, incluso, puede ser preferible.

Robert Forstag
: Better here would be “Gender Equality: Progress and Setbacks” (because “setbacks...toward gender equality” doesn’t make sense). “”Progress and Pitfalls in Gender Equality” is another possibility here.

Thanks Robert. Flipping the title like that would be another option. Pitfalls impede progress; 'retroceso' denotes a step back in the process. Thanks again

: Both of these answers would be correct - personally, I prefer the use of advances for the flow of the sentence, sounds a little more natural.
