Syska Hennessy Group’s Post

It has been such an inspiring week taking part in the United Nations #CSW68 Commission on the Status of Women, full of incredible insight and calls for more! More women in places where decisions are being made. More funding for women’s causes. More opportunities for women and girls. More education for women, by women and with women. More awareness for women’s safety, mental and physical well-being. More demand for equal rights. More calls for updated, conscious and effective healthcare for women. It has also been so inspiring to see what so many nations around the world are actively doing to make the necessary changes, shifting the narrative and bringing a voice to those in power. Thank you to all of the incredible speakers, leaders and individuals who are leading the way and making our voices heard. We will continue to make noise! “Just because it is what has been done, doesn’t mean it is what should be done.” -Cinderella We don’t accept the status quo. Thank you to UN Women UK for making it possible for so many of us to be delegates, make our voices heard, share our stories and work together to bring about the change we want to see on a global level for ALL. #unwomenuk #csw68 #inspirational #genderparity #genderequality #endgenderbasedviolence #healthcareforall #education #womenforwomen #femaleentrepreneurship #pavingtheway #unitednations #leaders #wewillnotgosilent #speechless #statusquo #changemakers #changetheworld
