Quotes
The fight against the exploitation of women can be an engine for overall social change.
While there has been positive development recently in Tunisia, there has not been any change in the law and women still face discrimination. I am concerned that this discrimination will continue if conservative opinions remain in power.
Solidarity is the key ingredient. Solidarity brings results. It is important to work together to create visibility. This in turn will assist with accessing UN mechanisms. As a network we can work together.
