Double Delegate of Barbados
Fighting Women’s Discrimination for
Better World
UN
WOMEN
For making a proper solutions toward women’s discrimination, we
reviewed the history of our country on that. Our country has ratified the
Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination againts Women
(CEDAW) on 13th of August 2002. Our country experience toward that
circumstances, was not a bad experiences. We do respected and advanced the
whole thing about women. We served the custom of Matriarki, where we highly honored
the worker from woman. We also member of the International Labour Organization
(ILO), where we highlighted the worker’s right, elimination of discrimination
againts women in the field of employment, and had consistenly participated in
and supported the outcomes of international summits and conferences on women. During
the ratification of CEDAW, the representative of Barbados identified five areas
of priority: institutional mechanism; women in poverty; violance againts women;
women in decision-making’ and women health.
In 1999, the Ministry of Social Transformation had been established
and included the national machinery, renamed the Bureau of Gender Affairs,
which was tasked with mainstreaming the concept of gender into all policies,
plans, and programmes, monitoring that process and carrying out sensitively
training in the public and private sectors. A National Advisory Council on
Gender had been created to assist the Bureau.
We as the representative of Barbados believes, that woman’s part is
not absolutely bad. We had done so many achievements according to the scene of
women behind that. So as we encourage worlwide to even change their paradigm on
women. In our country, women were active participants in the political process
as supporters, campaigners and voters. Therefore, in order to fight the women’s
discrimination is to swift our paradigm on them. Start from trusting them on
any matter related to the works of life.
