Today is mother’s day in the Arab World, yet mothers and motherhood have been under relentless assault from every direction and every direction: States, businesses, criminal enterprises, armed groups, partners and former partners.
Thinking of all those robbed of their ability to be mothers, and children robbed of their mothers especially in Palestine, Sudan, Lebanon but also Iran, Mexico, the DRC, Myanmar and every other country on earth.
As im preparing my next report to the Human Rights Council next June, i have been reminded of just how undervalued and undermined motherhood and mothers have become in societies, and the grave implications this carries for our humanity, for our future and for our prosperity.
