I am in New York, where the United Nations 63rd annual CSW event is taking place till March 22nd, 2019.
For about 10 seconds – time just to froze, and I remembered 6 years earlier when I was just 10, getting ready to practice my first ever speech, about my Girls Education project. I thought I was ready. At that very moment, a simple smile crept into the corner of my mouth, and right away, I knew I was simply ready, and couldn’t wait to start. It seemed I had been practicing for this moment for the past 6 years.
That phrase I have heard before, which even Hillary Clinton used on her campaign trail – ‘It takes a village’.
