Cairo's Tahrir Squarehttp://t1.g.hjfile.cn/listen/201203/201203200455312654828.Mp3In the Central African Republic, the U.S. is helping women access legal and economic services.And in the Congo, the U.S. is improving the collection of medical evidence for the prosecution of gender-based violence.
Political transitions are underway in Iraq, Afghanistan, Sudan, and in the Middle East and North Africa.The United States is working to develop local strategies in each country to empower women politically, economically, and socially.
"The United States," said Secretary Clinton, "is concerned about the revolutions in the Middle East and North Africa.They held so much promise, but they also carried real risks, especially for women.We saw women on the front lines of the revolutions, most memorably in Cairo's Tahrir Square. They marched, they blogged, they tweeted, they risked their lives alongside their sons and brothers – all in the name of dignity and opportunity. But after the revolution, too often they have found their attempts to participate in their new democracies blocked.”
Women everywhere, including in the Middle East, deserve the right to shape their own destinies.It is part of the American mission, said Secretary Clinton, to ensure that women and men alike have the opportunity to live up to their God-given potential.
