UNOPS
“Despite governments, businesses and the UN adopting many policies expressing commitment to gender equality, there is still a long way to go to make this a global reality. In 2017, UN Secretary-General António Guterres stressed the need for reform – to revitalize the way the UN works, with a pledge to improve gender parity system-wide. UNOPS welcomes this opportunity as now is the time to change our approach to achieve gender parity. At UNOPS, our operations, in particular in conflict-affected countries, also clearly show that women are under-represented. As part of our efforts to be a more sustainable organization, and to better represent the people we serve, this strategy outlines our commitment to ensure women, at all levels, see a future for themselves at UNOPS. I pledge to call on expertise from all sectors of society, and to put policies and safeguards in place, to change. Achieving gender parity is non-negotiable. ”

The summit will be built around the pressures and stresses, hopes and dreams that teenagers are facing right now-today. We want to inspire girls to believe, "I AM ENOUGH" just the way I am. Once girls know they are enough they'll be free to listen to their own voice and follow their own dreams and of course DREAM BIG!”
