"Mr President, the women here who are speaking on behalf of women are already in a special position. Despite this, we complain too often about a lack of appreciation. We have the opportunity of working here, but not always is our work appreciated. Today, on International Women's Day, I should like to draw attention to the millions of women who are scarcely noticed. On this International Women's Day, Amnesty International has asked that special attention be paid to violence against women, sexual violence against women, and the humiliations suffered on a daily basis. I thank you for the efforts you are prepared to make within our Institution, and I should like to ask you that we, as an Institution, send the message to the Council and the Commission that actual guarantees should be made to improve the situation of these women and stop the humiliations and exploitations. We, as development donors, carry a huge responsibility in the world, but the money invariably ends up in the pockets of the consultants rather than with the women who deserve it."@en1
