In her statement, Ambassador Fatima also outlined Bangladesh’s core priorities in the third committee this year.  "Apart from the resolution of Rohingya crisis, the key priorities of Bangladesh include ensuring vaccine equity, promoting women empowerment and addressing violence against women, ensuring rights of children including their right to education, protecting the rights and well-beings of migrant workers, and promotion and protection of human rights at the national and global levels."
