Hijran Huseynova: “Nagorno Karabakh conflict created obstacles for protection of women in Azerbaijan”
Chairwoman of Azerbaijan State Committee for Family, Women and Children’s Issues Hijran Huseynova participated here in the 53rd session of the UN Commission on the Status of Women.
Huseynova made a speech at the event, saying “ensuring gender equality within the society is among key priorities for the Azerbaijani government.” “With this aim the State Committee for Family, Women and Children’s Issues was set up by a decree of President Ilham Aliyev” Huseynova said during her speech.
As part of her visit Hijran Huseynova also attended an event to launch Justice for Khojaly campaign. She raised the awareness among the event`s participants about details of the Khojaly genocide. Huseynova said Armenia`s aggression against Azerbaijan “forced over million Azerbaijanis, of them 420,000 women, to leave their homes.”
In New York Hijran Huseynova also had meetings with Executive Director of the United Nations Population Fund Thoraya Ahmed Obaid, Professor at Sofia University Yoriko Meguro and Executive Director of the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS Michel Sidibe.
