In the presence of MP Dima Jamali, the Future Movement’s Women’s Sector in Tripoli organized yesterday a talk in Tripoli entitled, ‘From women’s empowerment to strengthening women in society’. Jamali emphasized the importance of women’s empowerment, pointing out that governments with wise leaderships recognize and are well aware of the status of women and their unlimited role in the development of societies and how to benefit from their capacities in achieving remarkable growth. Jamali stressed that empowerment is facilitated through expanding women’s education and later increasing their access to the labor market where they can unleash their creativity. She maintained that the objectives of the 17 sustainable development goals are based on realizing Goal 5, which supports the right of women and girls everywhere to enjoy equal rights and opportunities and to live a life free of all forms of violence and discrimination. Jamali considered economic empowerment as the most fundamental and challenging step, because independence is the outcome of economic empowerment which allows women to develop themselves through job creation. In conclusion, the Future MP said violence against women in all its forms slows down the accomplishment of their goals, stressing the importance of awareness of the prevalence and observance of a special law that protects them and their family members from domestic violence.
