2020 International Women's Day UN 75 Dialogue with PNG Youth
On International Women's Day, I had the privilege of being a part of 3 other young champions from PNG seated at the UN75 Dialogue as panelist with the United Nations Deputy Secretary General, Her Excellency Amina Mohammed, the UN Secretary General's Youth Envoy, Jayathma Wickramanayake and the UN AIDS Secretary General, Winnie Nyanyima.
The Dialogue was moderated by UN Women's Ms Bronwyn Kili.
On behalf of the young people who contributed to the People working pillar, we called to
1. End all forms of acts of Violence, Stigma and Discrimination this is done through reforming Discriminatory Laws (Colonial Laws)
2. Equal access to services, resource and equal distribution of wealth.
3. An equal world where inclusion and diversity is celebrated for humans to co-exist and co-create.
