Following the successful 🇪🇺-@ASEAN Ministerial, I was happy to accept Minister Saleumxay Kommasith’s invitation to visit 🇱🇦 Laos, the current ASEAN chair.
We discussed the chair’s priorities on economic integration and exchanged views on Myanmar.
The humanitarian and political situation in Myanmar is dire. Millions are affected, particularly women and girls. I am co-hosting an exhibition in Brussels which brings voice to the unseen voices in Myanmar. The exhibition is free and open for all.https://t.co/HRem5EwwCk
In the coming days @EUMyanmar will provide concrete examples on how #EU activities have contributed to the empowerment of women and girls. #IWD2024#InspireInclusion
In Southeast Asia like in Europe, this day #IWD2024 is the one when we all focus on gender parity and equal chances for girls and women.
However everyday really, all year long, we must fight for a fairer and more inclusive society.
Each of us can help.
