Im femi oke a youre watching the stream and it is a limited Edition Serious where we take you into the United Nations General Assembly and team up with the u. N. To tackle some of the most important global issues impacting our world right now we are going to be on t. V. Real on instagram we are and you tube you know what to do if your new cheap jump into the comments section and you can be part of every single shot today were looking at women and gals as the u. N. Marks the 25th anniversary of the historic womens Conference Held in beijing take a look the year was 9095. 00. Womens movements and n. G. O. S asked for and governments adopted a visionary agenda for gender equality. We saw looking at environments out when you win and women and gender equality with vietnam as a she is a United Nations Environment Program goodwill ambassador while she has some heft behind at dia tell everybody what you do some of you important job titles the job titles that you know of and up introduce yourself to international audience. Thank you phemie thank you for having me as a part of this comes in and i am very proud to order the. Sustainable Development Goals to advocate for the secretary general. Rule of math that of hers importance and you should and its something that we hope that the world will increase and we have a decade to act on whose bones and ensure we feel just right and the reality. Apart from that they were just in india and indian and we see the children as the artist thats the doing there and im an actor producer these are some things theyd. Do you know up the full front of pushing for a better environment or Clean Environment certainly for india where you are often the based and there are very few women who are doing this the many of the decisions are made at the top table by men why do you think that is. Well isnt that a deal with a problem this happens in all spheres of life that something that our implanted buyers are unfortunately unseen in fact we are works of magic but there are incredible champions of the environment in me changing your anger and one of my heroes dr james good or is somebody who has worked relentlessly what and diane i do for the book or protect the protection why and i think and i think that there has to be in every of the snow a lot more participation from rimon but im sure you would have nor just in the recent past in the last 8 years there has been unprecedented participation from women and children are asking in demanding for better environmental laws that Environment Protection and Climate Action is sometimes seems as if when we look at our environment that it is so difficult to really tackle the deceased for instance plastic pollution in india is one of your your passion to see if you could reduce the amount of plastics in india clean air and how do you even begin as somebody who cares about where you live to really tackle some of the big issues where you know if. Well the reason doing this and i think it starts with the individual action and the choices that you can get an individual because when you see even your change it has to start we are there. To also. Meet you know choosing to live my life where i absolutely refuse and also in the past to expose. Beneath the clean air and plastic feel single use nasty free environment is something that has to come from action. The other thing to do of course is to meet with policymakers the government we had a very powerful gambin in india led by the United Nations and programme with the plastic pollution that led to very powerful commitment to me by our Prime Minister to meet us in the us spastic street by 2022. I dont know how much this and democrats set us back but i surely hope that we can live through and see through see ourselves through on the structures but for the work of many stakeholders itll be clark be able to change for. Businesses and industries implemented extended produce and responsibility because you know when you think about the plastic the storage of plastic and the fact that theres so much of that is undermining each that is entering the we that. Air after its anywhere i mean is that their thoughts that suggest that there is plastic even in babies lets end up food chain now when you think about that is the one thing that we usually in most definitely need to start working towards is ensuring that businesses across the world or means big city one of those manufacturers and industries. Started rethinking and reimagining the we are the package all of their products and become responsible for their packaging because while we make change that we believe and refusing to use gas to life its not going to stop the clock its not an end it is the only way we can be accountable for that we create and generate and the devastation across ozs is when Industries Come together and siri have to change things. But in my lab who. Got them you know whether its beat. Whether its you know interacting with children i dont really think ive been in this example the last time we spoke and reuse it again but when we take children to the beach or to help clean up the plastic that the ocean was back on the beach and you see them witness their you know biscuit packets and their job to trappers and straws and their leg and eyes how much of it. It is things they use in their lead when they call it makes them see the plastic and therefore stop using it it makes a big difference. Dina thank you for joining us who are looking at women and girls and the place in the world talking specifically to you about the environment how i look back you know my laptop if you think it is that whole is that all of the d. M. V. Of that were going to cast it as a were going to get no no no not at all so reveal how up on tuesday at 1630 g. M. T. The instagram life guest on the aging stream Instagram Account is d. M. Say you he adds have a conversation with her and cannot make it the exact time you can see it at the a. J. Stream accounts any time on the i t v. D m as a thank you very much for now. We go from one incredibly talented actress and environmentalist to another one let me take you back to United Nations in 2019 when im jay leno joey a trest the. Evidence. Around the world. There are countless examples of women rising taking leadership taking their destiny into their own hands inspiring us all. But women and girls are still the majority of the victims of war. They are over half of all refugees and the vast majority of the victims of rape and other sexual and gender based violence. Women are at the absolute epicenter of modern conflict. In the worst possible sense. You said now about the men and gals education and refugees to patrick people today that i marry and have mary introduce yourself and try not to intimidate if they go ahead. Of you are ok i am mary understood and i am a teacher a refugee student from south sudan and are currently in the united state i am also are they your needs are high profile supporter air and im also i said to myself to my family and to my company that i came from the capital a refugee camp im not sure that and. Im not sure the filipovic want to be on the same segment with you but we will try for people introduce yourself to the welt. The me the searches will be. So hard i am i am actually being issue many young worker all my life and now i am do un high commissioner for refugees which sounds very grand but what if what is it true it is it means to be there of an organization of the u. N. Called you ready c r which is the primary u. N. Organization dealing with refugees these Police People sticklers people and the like theres about 80000000. 00 of them around the world and as you heard from Angelina Jolie earlier our special envoy age of eventually if more than half of them are women i see this because you know in order to me today i tweeted that i tweeted about the 75th anniversary of the u. N. And they sent you any 75 who were born to and war and conflict wars in conflict unfortunately have not and that they continue to force. People get way from their homes and what keeps us going is the reason really and the strength of these people and mary embodies that is the the resilience of the refugees that should inspire us to continue to support them and find solutions to their plight and that resilience is largely largely on the strength of the women refuges marianne tell you what inspired me and that was watching your text talk to cocoon and there was a picture that just met tatic me it was you in your School Uniform and us so happy to get the picture while hes happy. Hours happy because i was in a safe space where our us be encouraged to develop my own voice our enough pain where as a woman our accepted and told to or think outside the box hours in a case where i was taught to question this is started that so much dont want me to be in the classroom and i was in a haze where i could be mice out without having to worry are married have to shrink just out of you have to be silent youre a refugee i was in a space where i was reminded i was a student that could become anything with the resources that ive been given. This is something thats really important right now and i know that youre a big advocate for refugees because you were a refugee and so when we look at refugees around the world and we look at women and girls in particular and then the Global Pandemic growing what gives you pause what concerns you about how they will be faring my al. In 1000 makes me quite silent because prior to cover 1000 women especially refugee were immense changable to be in a safe space with coffin 1000 coming in as an extra layer to the uncertainties that women face refugee women face im imagining or im seeing women. And doing all they had that has been raised put them to elevate their voices im seeing women giving out their children for moderates because they are stuck as refugees we are already in spaces where we are stuck but with 1000 coming in and for example a country like kenya comes into school when men are our environments basis to our agenda based violence there in space thats where they feel like poverty is literally controlling their lives and they need to hand that or girl children it is literally not the time where parents feel like ok i need to marry you are in order to just have arrived and our girls are having to make the choice of a the saving their parent by getting married to a man that they often dont know or having to wait. Until. Like reduced and then going back to score under warrant that all the hard ones that are placed in the Education Sector is going to be just the 4th that i dont know if thats what its going to be like and just come out all of a sudden and i fear for our girls. So if i want to put this question to you it comes from a diva who is on you tube watching right now thank you so much appreciate you davis says its sad to see the conditions of refugees especially girl children on her i mean what suggestions do you have your the right person to have the suggestions go ahead. Well let me let me say 1st i think i agree saw much with mary set because. The and any coronaviruses. Has had and will have it a vast dating back on people on the move refugees displaced also migrants. Is especially in the economic and social sphere. And most of these people. As mary described hands on jobs often trims a precarious short term jobs that are the 1st ones to disappear you locked up its so poverty which we become unfortunately for many people around the world because of current main people we come fast there has already come for millions of refugees i werent lebannon if you days ago it country where one person or is it refugee was the syria or anniston and and i had i was with refugee parents and children where the parents taught me with tears in their eyes that they couldnt send their children to school anymore because they had to send their children to work otherwise they would simply become sort of poor that they couldnt survive any more so i believe that what we need to do respond to the question is ensure and he says that in part ensure that refugee populations displaced populations are included in this huge red rock it is that the world is putting together to salvage tragedy and economists most refugees lets not forget that because we always have the impression in the rich world that this is where the refugee problem is nor the refugee problem 90 percent using court countries and middle Income Countries a lot of money has been mobilized to rescue those economists lets make sure that those academe include the refugees otherwise they will be even more marginalized chartres the people and mary you make a Great Tag Team together we really appreciate you being on the stream under today one of the best things i have seen this week one of the vessels ive seen this year is mary merle kesse talk talk over 1000000 people who think the same thing to go look it up and look out for a moral. Thank you so much the. We are marking the 25th anniversary of a very famous womens conference in beijing happened back in 1995 if theres one moment that you will remember one moment you may well seen in pop culture it was Hillary Clinton taking to the podium and making a speech i listen i believe that now on the eve of a new millennium it is time to break the silence it is time for us to say here in beijing and for the rural that through here there is no longer acceptable to discuss womens rights and separate from human rights. Come think of a better person to round up past allen ridiculous perspective than the executive director of you and your women can see in a boat. Thank you welcome back to the stream its always a pleasure having you we have some push back online people are very upset that were talking about women and girls and theyre actually saying well its not a competition. For rats says is this a competition now how do we know when something is abstract as being equal actually looks like how do we know if we got gender equality 25 years after that very famous womens conference. What would you say back to any of the senate. Thank you thank you so much actually air one way of fear is making sure that people know that were not having a competition we actually are concerned with white children and men but the truth is there is more violence against women in the world and is mans violence and gays women one out of every 3 the world lives for violence and it is one of the promises in beijing there are more women who live in extreme poverty and one of our greatest fears after cause of it is that in intent to turn to and especially women between the ages of 25. 00 in theory fashion well be the majority of the extreme poor and that my juries of them will be women for every 110. 00 in for every 100 men will be extremely poor there will be hundreds in 18 women so really we just dealing with it or if there are areas where men are more severely affected definitely we have to focus on that but right now we actually at dealing with a crisis in women girls are the only people who are forced to marry older men theyre the only once the only ones because the egg else who are children telly mutilated and women and the only ones who are not paid ear for the only bet in the same way if their counterparts who are mean which is just making it work for everybody not competing i want to paint video comment from sorry his thinking about this anniversary since manging changing womens conference this is what zorra has to say to us. This year is another reminder that we have a long way to go in ensuring that good justice and gender equality are achieved but everyone to benefit. Let us remember that we inherently live within a society that tells females that it is a privilege to use who are and who is it is now time to pass the microphone on to our sisters that have been voiceless by the gender equality. Im just wondering that was such an amazing conference 25 years ago i but what has happened in the interim should we be celebrating our ship which sank when we should be forever alone in 2020 then we are right now its. There has been change which has been an equal and slow but also even though it is my guest it is not insignificant because weve lends valuable lessons from. The changes there were of sin in beijing for instance in the world d there were 11 women heads of state and governments and now in 2020 cheering this General Assembly we have 22 women heads of the in the world in beijing they are about 11 percent of fear members of parliament on global a conclusion at her age who are women. Now we have around 25 percent so 75 percent of the laws that are made in the world every way in the majority i meet a man for all of us and in beijing also we have only any countries that have gender specific laws and right now we have 110. 00 they one country is that it passed laws so and just generally equality in 25. 00 countries that have amended constitutions in order. To provide for for for for quality so as you can see there has been some progress in meaningful but it is not adequate it is not fast enough and imitation tends to if it cuts because it will invest in courses available to do mens wear tend to be very limited. I want to bring one more voice entire conversation e. T. And this is looking ahead to the future and have a listen to the most important issue for us in the big name to men to 5 because every show on and in commemorating generation equality is to ensure that showing women every preventive in oil levels of government Decision Making this is in elect up elections appointment boards and commissions we have to ensure that we are a bit of policy formulation in the context of Building Back better after 19 i love anika energy shes kind of raising us up saying this is what this is what we can do but. You sounded weary just that when you were listing the facts which show that women are not equal quality is not yet in a sentence what should we be doing about innocent. Well really we should actually be building on the less since. Women like anika provides us with new energy and we should be that generation out in the steps to take a you know order to make sure we bring in that up to the same. People. If so we have to disconnect settles discriminating against women refuse discriminating against women because of mary it discriminates against gals. We have i was a bit i was up there early and the last sentence.
