I’ve had a wonderful visit to Rarotonga this week, where I have seen the enduring friendship between Australia and Cook Islands in action. So inspiring to see how equality is being progressed through love, kindness and respect

The #WPS agenda offers solutions to the challenges we face in the Indo-Pacific region and globally – including climate, cyber and space security. Delighted to be part of this important discussion with key partners

Australia has a long standing friendship with Chile, with strong people-to-people & commercial ties spanning decades. This week in Santiago I’ve had important discussions about women’s economic empowerment, diversity in trade and the women, peace and security agenda 🇦🇺🇨🇱

Mexico and Australia share much in common in our efforts to achieve gender equality. I’ve enjoyed learning from and sharing with government counterparts, civil society, activists and the private sector during my wonderful visit to México City 🇲🇽🇦🇺

I’ve had excellent discussions on gender equality and women’s political participation with IPU representatives over the last week in New York and Mexico Cynthia López Castro Patricia Torsney Dr. Tulia Ackson

Despite women’s key roles in mediation & peace efforts, they often remain on the margins of peace processes. It's time to emphasize the remarkable efforts done by women peacebuilders & human rights defenders. #CSW68

I am proudly sharing Australia's new Strategy for Gender Equality at all my engagements at #CSW68 !

The strategy outlines 🇦🇺's vision for gender equality -where people are safe, treated with respect, have choices, access to resources, & equal outcomes no matter their gender

We must embed gender equality across systems & structures to protect the human rights of all women & girls, in all contexts.
