"I dream of a future where girls are not held back by gender biases, poverty, or any form of discrimination. By building girl's agency where they can lead, make decisions, and shape their own destinies, in every sphere of their life-whether it's in education, in the workplace, or in their communities. I hope for a world where girls can live free from violence and exploitation, where they have access to quality healthcare, inclusive and responsive education, safe spaces, and the tools they need to thrive. In this world, they wouldn't just be seen as passive recipients of help, but as active agents of change who shape the future with their voices and actions. My hope is that we see a world where gender equality isn't something we need to fight for, it's given. And that every girl child, regardless of her circumstances, is given the opportunities and support she needs to dream big and achieve those dreams."
Patrina Tawake, FWRM's GIRLS Programme Officer speaking at the "Talanoa - Children, Youth and Gender" panel at Pacific Technical Cooperation Session of the
Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW).
