 Today on International Women's Day, we celebrate the unwavering leadership, innovation, and resilience of all women and girls. The strides they have made around the globe. In particular, those who are part of the migrant community and the diaspora are the source of hope. Every day, women and girls demonstrate what is possible. When their voices are not just heard, but echoed far and wide. Despite these achievements, we are the critical juncture. The clock is ticking and our mission has never been more urgent. We are losing the advantages we have gained through migration. Now only a fraction of gender equality indicators are on track. The stark reality is that without a continuous and decisive push for the empowerment of all women and girls, the conditions will empire and the roots of poverty will deepen. But our dedication to overcoming all obstacles is unwavering. For migration to work for all, the contributions of women are crucial. That's why we are partnering with a diverse range of women changemakers. We are working together to make the world a better place. We are working to break down the barriers that women face so the world can not only recognize the triumph of their talents and diversity. I've seen firsthand the transformative power of collective action. But to create lasting and inclusive change, we must engage everyone across all genders to build a violence-free world that values each unique contribution. We must join hands to challenge the norms and to build a world that's not just equal, but truly inclusive.
