通过妇女参与追求和平 (2/2) - 英语听力

Studies suggest that

Countries where women are safe and valued by society are more likely to be peaceful

So the United States will invest in early warning systems

That incorporate gender analysis and monitor increases in violence and discrimination against women

We will also invest in women and girls' health

Education and economic opportunities to create conditions for stable societies and lasting peace

We will use diplomatic pressure to push for new laws policies and practices

That promote and strengthen women's rights and effective leadership and substantive participation

We will also ensure

That relief and recovery efforts address the distinct needs of women and girls

So they can help stabilize their conflict-scarred countries

In order to better enable women's participation

We believe they should be safe and protected from harm exploitation discrimination and abuse

So we will work with partners

To crack down on rape as a tactic of war

Hold perpetrators of violence accountable

Support survivors of sexual and gender-based violence

Whether it's ending conflict managing a transition or rebuilding a country

The world cannot afford to continue ignoring half the population

Said Secretary Clinton

Not only can we do better we have to do better

And now we have a path forward as to how we will do better
