“One of the factors a country's economy depends on is human capital. If you don't provide women with adequate access to healthcare, education and employment, you lose at least half of your potential. So, gender equality and women's empowerment bring huge economic benefits.”

“I am a woman with a calling for social struggle and public service.”

“Having more women in company boards, in senior management, supervisory positions and workers in the formal sector is not only the right thing to do, but the smart thing to do. It's good for the bottom line.”

“Men and women must be educated, in a great degree, by the opinions and manners of the society they live in.”

“Early childhood education is the key to the betterment of society.”

“I'd like to think that my mentors, I've had the highest of education and one thing I've always noted, they were always writing stuff down, taking notes.”
