Twenty years ago, when the world convened a landmark conference on women's human right,the devastating conflict in the former Yugoslavia prompted desserved attention to rape and other warcrimes there against civilians Two decades later, with girls as young as seven not only targeted butused as weapons _ (1) violent extremists, it would be easy to lose heart about the value ofinternational gatherings But while we have a long way to go to achieve full equality - with endinggender-based violence a central goal - progress (2) has proven the enduring value of the

Even in societies at peace, too many girls and women are still _ (8) of domesticabuse, female genital mutilation and other forms of violence that traumatize individuals and damagewhole societies Discrimination remains a thick barrier that _ (9) We need to expandopportunities in politics, business and beyond We need to change mind-sets, especially amongmen, and engage men in becoming active change-agents themselves And we must back up ourresolve with resources based on the sure understanding that investments in gender equality generateeconomic progress, social and political inclusion and other benefits that, in turn, foster stability andhuman dignity

This is a vital year for advancing the cause of women’s human rights The internationalcommunity is hard at work on establishing a new sustainable development agenda that will build onthe Millennium Development Goals and shape policies and social investments for the nextgeneration To be truly _ (10), the post-2015 development agenda must prioritize genderequality and women’s empowerment The world will never realize 100 per cent of its goals if 50 percent of its people cannot realize their full potential When we unleash the power of women, we cansecure the future for all
