Today we were proud to take part in the Marriage Equality Rally in Sydney, petitioning the Labor Party to amend its platform to allow same-sex marriage. Estimates were that 5-10,000 people took part, marching through the streets of the city in a peaceful and good-natured manner.

Scenes from the Opening Session of the Generation Equality Forum, held in Paris, France on 30 June 2021.

The Generation Equality Forum (June 30 – July 2) is a major global inflection point for gender equality. This landmark effort is bringing together governments, corporations and change makers from around the world to define and announce ambitious investments and policies. The result will be a permanent acceleration in equality, leadership and opportunity for women and girls worldwide.Convened by UN Women and co-hosted by the governments of Mexico and France, in partnership with youth and civil society, the Forum will also fuel a powerful and lasting coalition for gender equality. It presents a vital moment for activists, feminists, youth and allies to achieve transformative change for generations to come. It will mark the beginning of a five-year action journey led by six Action Coalitions and a Compact on Women, Peace and Security, and Humanitarian Action. This is a critical moment. COVID-19 has exacerbated existing gender inequities, with reports of rising violence against women, as well as higher adverse economic impacts caused both by increased unpaid care-giving and the fact that women work in more insecure, low-paid and informal jobs. Women of color, indigenous women and youth face compounded risks and barriers. We are living through a gender equality crisis, and the Generation Equality Forum offers a critical opportunity to confront it and accelerate implementation of the landmark Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action.

Before any woman is a wife, a sister or a mother she is a human being. We ask nothing as women but everything as human beings. - Ida C. Hultin

Note: I took this picture from someone's front yard. What caught my attention was the bright pink flower and also the clay pot & brick next to it. It had its own kind of beauty.
