I am delighted to be here once again to address this wider N-G-O community on the day before the 57th session of the Commission on the Status of Women officially begins.
I am ho-no-u-red by the opportunity to meet with so many women and men who have made achieving gender equality and promoting women’s empowerment their life ambition. Your energy and dedication is truly inspiring.
Let me start by thanking the Chair of the N G O Committee on the Status of Women – New York, Ms. Soon-Young Yo-on. It is also with great hon-our that I am speaking on the same occasion as Nobel Peace Prize winner, Ta-w-a-k-k-o-l K-a-r-man . She is indeed the brave face of revolution, a woman fighting for change in her society.
This is the third time that I have been given the opportunity to address this important body in the lead up to the Commission on the Status of Women.
I want to say up front that this enthusiastic engagement of civil society sets the tone for the two weeks to come. The time for action is now. Discrimination and violence against women and girls have no place in the 21st century. But change is possible and change is happening.
On the global stage, there have been many major, even newsworthy, achievements for gender equality. The President of the United States has just signed a new Directive to Strengthen Work to Advance Gender Equality Worldwide. On 11 October 2012 the first-ever International Day of the Girl Child was launched and celebrated. Two female presidents were elected, in Malawi and the Republic of Korea, and the African Union has elected its first-ever female chairperson.
