Spanish President calls for greater inclusion of women

Spanish President Pedro Sánchez during an intervention at an event organized by the Women for Africa Foundation called for greater inclusion of women in the context of the Ukraine war.

He spoke during the ‘Women’s Bridges. Proposals from the South for global change”, an event organized by Women for Africa on the occasion of its tenth anniversary.
The event saw the participation of Queen Letizia of Spain and around 70African political leaders, as well as a remarkable number of Latin American politicians and activists.

“The visibility of women is the first tool of change
and gender equality is a necessary and unquestionable condition for the development of any society,” he said.

éWe will not rest until all women and girls enjoy the full exercise of their human rights,” the Spanish president said.

“We will not rest until we eliminate all violence against women and girls. We will not stop until women participate in all decision-making processes.
