"I embrace the responsibility of being an International Gender Champion and reaffirm my commitment towards achieving and maintaining gender equality at all levels including leadership roles throughout the Mechanism.  This is all attainable, by giving an active voice to women in their day to day functions within the Mechanism.  In our appearance as an entity, the inclusion of gender in every program, every focus, every agenda and subsequent outcome should be reflective of an action that is driven with gender equality at the forefront."
