*UN75 Women and Girls – Closing the Gender Gap*
Gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls is a goal in itself as well as a catalyst for the achievement of all the other goals. At the current rate of change, the global gender gap will not close for another 100 years. As the UN Secretary-General warned, “change is coming at a pace that is too slow for the women and girls whose lives depend on it”. Over the next 10 years, the global community must act with urgency and determination to accelerate progress and achieve gender equality for all women and girls everywhere. At this juncture Albertian Foundation is calling youth to participate in the global dialogue *UN-75 Women and Girls – Closing the Gender Gap*
