- Executive Director, UN Office on Drugs and Crime, Ghada Waly: Statement on International Women's Day - 'I Am Generation Equality: Realizing Women's Rights'

A generation later, we have achieved much progress, but discrimination and violence against women and girls are still keeping us from fulfilling the promise of the Sustainable Development Goals: to leave no one behind.
