Near the end of your speech you talked about four different things: one was education; one was life skills programming; one was using the private sector; and the last one was engaging boys and men into this conversation. You also mentioned that we need to get to the younger girls, starting in grade 3, or 8 years old, and we also need to include boys.
That is in line with what Status of Women believes. We need to engage not only the females in this discussion, but we need to get young boys actively involved.
Do you think that will help in the areas where there are cultural barriers, ethnicities, or religious beliefs? Do you think that getting to the younger boys in these groups, as well, will help women in the long run, as they grow up and become prosperous?
