Education is both a right and an investment in a country’s future.
All girls must be able to resume their education in #Afghanistan.

No matter
who we are,
whom we love,
what our gender is,
when we were born,
where we come from;
why we fight is the same:
EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL.

@UN_Women
Education is a right. We must make sure girls can go to school in every part of the world.
332
@UN_Women
Imagine a gender-equal world.
✔️Women are free from fear of violence
✔️Men are free from toxic masculinity
✔️All people can exercise their human rights
✔️Diversity is celebrated, not feared
✔️Everybody is represented & empowered.
That's the world that we want. Are you with us?

Without equal access to Internet and new technologies, girls can miss essential opportunities that shape their futures.
We need to address intersecting factors, like disability and socioeconomic contexts that affect the digital gap on #DayoftheGirl.

@UN_Women
Gender equality and women’s empowerment is integral to each of the 17 #GlobalGoals.
Only by ensuring the rights of women and girls will we achieve a more sustainable and equal future.

Today we remember Minerva Bernardino, a diplomat from the Dominican Republic who was born #OnThisDay.
In a profession dominated by men, she was one of only 4 women to sign the @UN Charter in 1945.

🚨What is happening in #Afghanistan is an alarm bell for us all. 🚨
It shows how decades of progress on gender equality and women’s rights can be wiped out in months.
The fight for women’s rights in Afghanistan is a global fight, and a battle for women’s rights everywhere.

Did you know?
Women spend 3x as many hours as men each day in unpaid care and domestic work. #COVID19 is adding to women’s unpaid care workloads!
