Dear UN Women Executive Director Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka,
Thank you for supporting Cities for CEDAW . As a young man from Kampala I believe that grassroots advocacy can help with the challenges that women and girls face. Here in Africa most people don't believe in gender equality and so it is hard to reach our goals, but the good thing is that the International Community is spreading the word about the Sustainable Development Goals online. That flow of information has helped people understand the role of women and girls in the development of any community or country. I see positive changes in my community. The number of girls attending school is growing big, early marriages are dropping down and domestic violence is no longer on a high scale. These achievements are due to your great efforts. We should keep with the fight against gender inequality and gender based violence. Thank you
