We need to link it, we need to say a third of Pakistan is underwater, because we’ve just had floods that are melting glaciers, and we can tie that to China, and it’s industrial pollution.

Additional quotes by Amina J. Mohammed

I think we must stop stereotyping some of these issues. The truth of the matter is that there is an evolution of society.

How do we empower everyone to have a role and a place in the home, in the workplace and in society?
