Coltan. Gold. Cobalt.

These strategic resources, vital for our phones, batteries, and computers...
are mined in eastern DRC, in war-torn areas.

And yet,
it is not the local populations who benefit from them,
but armed groups, foreign interests, and opaque supply chains.

Behind every gram, there are displaced lives, abused women, and exploited children.

It's time to look at where our wealth comes from.

On June 26, 2025, let's mobilize alongside the Women Ambassadors Foundation.

🇨🇩 Eastern Congo: A crisis the world cannot ignore.
Since 1996, over 6 million lives have been lost.
R**e is used as a weapon of war.
Villages destroyed, women silenced, childhoods stolen.

And yet… the world remains silent.

🧡 At the Women Ambassadors Foundation, we refuse silence.
We stand with the women and children of Eastern DRC,
not just in words, but in action.

📅 On June 26, 2025, we come together to remember, support, and rebuild.
Join us. Raise your voice. Be the difference.

🇨🇩 Eastern DRC: a silent crisis that can no longer be ignored.

For over 25 years, women and children in the eastern region of the Democratic Republic of Congo have endured unspeakable violence, massive displacements, and the destruction of entire communities.

Yet, in the face of this horror, they rise.
They are leaders, peacebuilders, creators of hope.

🎯 With this post, we shed light on the human cost of the conflict, and why we must act.

📅 Join us on June 26, 2025 for an evening of solidarity and remembrance in support of these women — because looking away is no longer an option.

🌍 New global report released today by UN Women and United Nations Development Programme - UNDP at the Women Deliver Conference reveals key findings on gender equality worldwide. 📊

The report introduces the Women's Empowerment Index (WEI), which measures women's capacity and freedom to make choices and seize opportunities in crucial areas: health, education, inclusion, decision-making, and violence against women. 💪

According to the Women's Empowerment Index (WEI), women worldwide are only able to achieve 60% of their full potential on average. They achieve, on average, 72 percent of what men achieve across key human development dimensions, as measured by the Global Gender Parity Index (GGPI), reflecting a 28 percent of gender gap❗️

Together, we must work tirelessly to bridge this gap and ensure equal opportunities for women to thrive in all spheres of life. Let's empower women, promote gender equality, and create a world where everyone can reach their true potential. 🌟
