The History of Equality and Inequality walking tour takes visitors through Tallinn's Old Town, exploring the history of inequality in Estonia through the themes of gender, ethnicity, race, skin colour, religion or belief, age, disability, and sexual orientation—all of which are protected under Estonia's Gender Equality Act and Equal Treatment Act.

The guide has been developed primarily for walking tour guides, but it is suitable for anyone interested in learning more about the history of equality and inequality in Estonia and enriching their walks through Tallinn's Old Town with historical examples and engaging stories.

The guide is designed as a flexible learning resource that can be adapted to different needs. Users can select the stops and stories that best suit their tour structure, target audience, or thematic focus. In doing so, the guide helps participants understand how issues of equality and inequality have shaped Estonia's history and why they continue to matter today.

The guide is available in two formats. The desktop version is intended for reading, planning, and printing before the tour.
