Thoraya Ahmed Obaid ’66, Director of the UN Population Fund (UNFPA) and Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations: |
"I encourage you not to lose sight of the work that lies on your own way towards making human rights and human worth tangible realities. In the many years ahead, wherever life takes you, use your talent and energy to make the world a better place for all. Be sure that you are always facilitators for change, so that the poor, the marginalized and the vulnerable can be empowered to bring change through their own actions and within their own context. Create safe space for the voices and actions of the poor, women and young people wherever they are." |
