“We welcome UN Women's new Executive Secretary, Madam Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka and assure her of our cooperation. We note with concern UN Women 2013-2017 Strategic Plan is under funded. We call for political and financial support for the Plan. We support the Executive Director's call that priority be given to the economic empowerment of women in rural areas. We hope the Executive Board can also address UN Women representation vacuum in the Pacific. Gender violence remains an issue in Solomon Islands and joins the international community in condemning sexual violence.”
