In a statement, the CNDH said that the UN organization has launched a #IStandWithHer campaign to commemorate International Women's Day and celebrate women leaders and pay tribute to their efforts to achieve gender equality.
Bouayach was chosen alongside a group of women leaders in the field, noted the same source, explaining that they include Cleo Kambugu (Uganda), Mitzi Tan (Philippines), Editar Ochieng (Kenya) and Maria de Luz Padua (Mexico).
On this occasion, Bouayach declared that "through my various experiences, I learned that responsibility is a combination of knowledge, which must be continuously updated, and daily experiences which must be constantly renewed according to each question, while being attached to the principle of consultation".
In her capacity as president of the CNDH, Bouayach pleads in favor of the establishment of quotas for women in political representation, underlined the source, reviewing the main issues on which she focuses in her action and which concern, in particular, equal access to education for women and girls in Morocco, the abolition of child marriage and the promotion of the rights of women and girls with disabilities.
