Extract:

This step consists in the adoption of resolution 289/64, which reaffirms the importance we all attach to the development of the UN system and the promotion of complementary between UN activities and programmes, especially those pertaining to women, through establishing a new unified entity to be in charge of all issues related to gender equality and women empowerment. ….women, infact, have a strategic role in our civilization project, and are considered as a partner in setting all our national choices. Tunisia strongly believes that democracy cannot be built and comprehensive development cannot be achieved without an active involvement of women in public life, and that promoting society to higher levels depends on enhancing the conditions of women in all fields. This conviction stems from our vision of human rights in theircomprehensiveness, indissociability and complementary.
