They should be effectively enjoyed at all levels local, regional, national, and worldwide. We must establish specific and concrete gender equity. We must eliminate all legal social and economic obstacles that hinder the empowerment of women and girls. We must fully guarantee their rights and eliminate all social practices and norms which are discriminatory against women. My government will do so.

    1. La sociedad afgana está enfrentando momentos muy difíciles. Pero las mujeres de Afganistán están en una situación particularmente peligrosa: Hoy, ahora, en estos precisos momentos, han vuelto al poder aquellos que en un pasado reciente quisieron prohibirles la educación, imponerles matrimonios forzados, garantizar la impunidad a los culpables de abusos sexuales en su contra y negarles sus libertades y derechos humanos. Aquellos que consideran que el mundo de las mujeres debe ser uno de sumisión y resignación. La agresión a las mujeres en Afganistán es una agresión a todas las mujeres del mundo. Y no podemos, las Naciones Unidas no pueden, sabiéndolo, quedarse de brazos cruzados, paralizadas por restricciones burocráticas o divisiones políticas en el Consejo de Seguridad. Debemos trabajar unidos para protegerlas y restituir sus plenas libertades y derechos. La causa de las mujeres de Afganistán es una causa de toda la humanidad.

    1. Elles ont été les premières à perdre leur emploi et les premières à mettre leurs carrières en suspens pour s’occuper de leurs proches. Les fermetures d’écoles ont touché les filles de manière disproportionnée, freinant leurs parcours et augmentant les risques d'abus, de violence et de mariage d’enfants.Combler le fossé entre les femmes et les hommes n’est pas seulement une question de justice pour les femmes et les filles.

Les plans de relance économique devraient accorder une place centrale aux femmes, notamment par des investissements à grande échelle dans l’économie des soins.Et nous devons adopter un plan d’urgence pour lutter contre la violence de genre dans chaque pays.

Les droits des femmes sont des droits humains.

    5. Cela change la donne pour l’humanité tout entière.Les sociétés plus égalitaires sont aussi plus stables et plus pacifiques.Elles ont de meilleurs systèmes de santé et des économies plus dynamiques.L'égalité des femmes est essentiellement une question de pouvoir.
