Thank you very much for this very important question.
I guess I would argue that there's really never enough. I think there are mechanisms, but where we see a gap is oftentimes in global initiatives. If you look at the grassroots level and what's really happening at the country level, there's oftentimes a disconnect between what's happening at a policy level internationally and globally and actual assistance and support reaching grassroots women in the most rural parts of Congo, for example.
I think this is where we need to work together as an international community to help connect our action and policy and political work with the actual needs of the women at the grassroots level.
Another challenge that I think we have as an international community is coordination. I think we see it not only in this issue but in other issues. How can we, in terms of our comparative advantages, coordinate in a more effective way, and where should we do that?
Having meetings in The Hague, for example, is certainly important, but oftentimes the coordination needs to happen at the level of the country, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and also even in eastern Congo.
I know many meetings occur in Kinshasa, and we often attend these meetings, but in Kinshasa you might as well be in Brussels. What's happening in eastern Congo is very far away from the capital. Again, how can we work together to coordinate and also involve grassroots efforts in our coordination efforts? I think this is where we need to come together to strengthen our responses.
