Dear UN Women Executive Director Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka,

Compassion for all human beings is the root of gender equality. Education, opportunities, health care, freedom of thought and movement are the birth right of all human beings. Both sexes suffer from the inequality that is present in many societies in the world today. People of both sexes lose sight of their common humanity with the opposite sex.

We need to encourage the kind of sustainable change that will really make a difference to women and men all around the world. We need to make these changes with the motivation of compassion for all peoples.

Yours sincerely, Susan Cullen
