Statement of GUINEA at the UNGA73

General WPS/Participation: The creation of an inclusive society underpins the elimination of inequalities and social barriers which prevent the participation of young people and women in economic activities and politics.

General WPS: Gender equality, the promotion and empowerment of young people and women are fundamental to the achievement of sustainable development and must be taken into in development policies.

Implementation: I would like to take advantage of this occasion and congratulate the Secretary-General of the United Nations. Since taking office he has achieved gender parity in appointments to higher positions in the United Nations.
