Guterres Warns Pushback on Women’s Rights is Intensifying Worldwide

The Kabul Tribune (KT) - António Guterres, UN Secretary-General, said that in these turbulent times, opposition to women’s rights is intensifying.

Many women and girls are still denied access to justice. He noted that this pushback becomes stronger when entrenched powers feel their grip loosening.

Guterres emphasized that every voice and every bit of leadership from women and girls is crucial for advancing equality, and men and boys must stand in solidarity with women. He added that fully supporting the rights of women and girls is not only a moral responsibility but also key to achieving justice and sustainable development worldwide.
