Apart from human trafficking, helping the victims and the respect for their human rights, the ministers also discussed the UN reform that supposes the setting up of a Peace Building Commission. The ministers sent a letter in which they request that gender equality be taken into account in the constitution and activities of the Commission. Minister Grabar-Kitarović said that Croatia wants to have an active role in that process and offered Croatia’s peace building experiences.
Minister Grabar-Kitarović will host the female foreign ministers’ meeting to be held in Geneva, at the next session of the UN Commission for Human Rights.
