Feeling incredibly grateful and humbled to have attended the 69th UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW69) in New York. I couldn’t be more proud to be part of such an impactful and transformative gathering.

I was honored to stand alongside young Global Advocacy Champions from the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS), whose passion, determination, and vision for gender equality are nothing short of inspiring.

Together, we are shaping a world where women and girls everywhere can thrive and lead.
