Following are UN Deputy Secretary-General Amina Mohammed’s remarks at the ministerial-level side event on feminist foreign policy as an accelerator for positive change by transforming commitments into actions, in New York today:
It is a pleasure to join you today. Feminist foreign policy is a powerful approach to put women’s rights and perspectives at the heart of diplomacy, for the benefit of all.
Feminist diplomacy is essential to end the most pervasive inequality in our world. But feminist diplomacy is also effective diplomacy that calls for a shift of mindset away from confrontation and towards dialogue, engagement, cooperation and peace. This shift is more important than ever in today’s world of interlinked challenges.
