We did it!
The most dangerous references that sought to promote the sexualization of children, sexual orientation and gender identity, and the LGBT agenda, have been erased from the Agreed Conclusions of the 67th UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW), which took place last week in New York.
I would like to start by saying THANK YOU!
Because of your support, perseverance, and generosity, we have achieved something incredible at such a global level and against all odds.
My team and I just returned from the event I am delighted to share this incredible news with you and to say that our efforts in this campaign were far from in vain.
Watch the video of our actions in New York that contributed to achieving this fantastic result:
CSW is a global gathering at the UN that facilitates the push of the radical feminist agenda, including on it the whole leftist’s delusional package: free abortion, sexual orientation and sexual identity (SOGI), and sexualization of children.
Instead of discussing real issues affecting women worldwide, they always discuss misplaced ideological issues which supposedly ‘empower’ women. This year was no different.
Despite the adamant pressure from the United States, Australia, the European Union, and many of its ideological allies, the key coalitions formed amongst the African nations (Cameroon, Egypt, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Senegal, Sudan), Caribbean and Gulf countries, and not least, the emphatic statements delivered by the Holy See, all was enough to block the radical Comprehensive Sexuality Education and trans agenda into the agreement.
Your help, along with thousands of passionate citizens like you worldwide, was crucial to prevent this radical push and attack on your children.
- Our success in stopping Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) is all the more relevant because the theme of the CSW67 was about education and technology for women and girls.
- Thanks to you, we were also able to save millions of taxpayer dollars, channeled through the UN agencies, from being used globally to fund the sexualization of children through Comprehensive Sexuality Education.
- We delivered close to 200,000 signatures collected through our campaign across the world (many more joined in the last hours).
- We met up with as many delegations as we possibly could, warning them of the dangers of this draft and imploring them to vote against the radical promotion of abortion, gender ideology, and the perverse sexualization of children through Comprehensive Sexual Education.
- We have been relentlessly campaigning all week inside and outside the United Nations Headquarters in New York.
And our work on the ground proved successful!
Meeting with Hungarian (left), Nigerian (middle) and Polish (right) delegations prior to the UN CSW67 negotiations in New York
We received very positive support, particularly from the African delegations, including Cameroon, Ethiopia, Madagascar, Mali, Nigeria and Senegal.
The African regional group on the negotiating table proved to be a critical stronghold in rejecting these extreme proposals, such as CSE and preserving fundamental family values in the Agreed Conclusions. They refused the continuous bullying and cultural imperialism that always goes on in these negotiating rooms and stood strong for family values.
We also spoke at length and worked closely with the Polish and Hungarian delegations.
They promised us that they would provide a dissenting voice against the radical agenda which was being pushed by their European counterparts and not ignore the pro-family voice at the time of voting. Despite their promises, it was disheartening to see how they didn’t push enough within the European block to break the ideological consensus.
The negotiations ran until the early hours of Saturday morning, with our team in the building awaiting, eager and hopeful. Even hours before the end, the Western governments had a last try to include CSE, but thankfully they failed.
The delegates finally adopted the agreement just before 4.00 am, angering the woke government delegations and feminist activists, who exited the building in utter frustration.
I am so proud of my colleagues on and off the ground, who I could work with so tirelessly over the course of this campaign to achieve this objective, in spite of the constant attacks we faced over the last few days and the UN’s efforts to try and shut us up.
Intending to dodge the censorship against us, we organized outside the UN headquarters large vans to circulate the building during the time of negotiations, displaying the key message ‘Women are defined by biology, not ideology’.
We also coordinated a huge series of wild posters across Manhattan to bring this message home and for all delegates to see.

We must not forget that UN law, despite being non-binding, holds significance when it emerges into customary international law.
Big-player woke governments and radical lobby groups attempt to use the UN system to create new rights and norms which would be normally more difficult to establish at national level and through national governments.
We see every year at the Commission of the Status of Women, as well as at other UN Commissions, how our ideological enemies are working towards a radical woke global norm, which they want other countries to just shut up and accept.
This time, thanks to you, most of their perverse agenda and motivations did not prevail!
But it’s not all good news, of course.
Unfortunately, for example, the expressions "sexual and reproductive health services" and "multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination" (= code language for trangender ideology) remain in this CSW document, as do references to "hate-speech". This can be harmful as UN agencies could implement terms related to this language, including on abortion, "LGBT rights", and free speech.
There is still a lot of work which - with your help - we need to do at the UN.
We have seen what we are capable of achieving. But we also know that the feminist lobby and woke governments will not rest until they push this through.
We must continue our hard work to keep out and remove dangerous and ethically corrupt language from all UN documents. So far, we've managed to help keep out the worst of the language, thanks to your help, but we must now redouble our efforts.
This is why our push-back is imperative, and the cooperation between pro-family organizations like ours, and countries that respect pro-life and pro-family values, represents a bastion of hope.
If we work together, we are capable of making our voices heard at the highest level, and we can change things for the better.
Together, we’ve overcome the radicals at the UN this week. May this be a reason for encouragement for you and all of us, to never give up on defending what is right, as daunting as it may sometimes seem.
Together let us continue to change the world; for life, family and freedom.
Thank you once again because, without you, none of this would be possible.

PS: Want to support our work? Together, we must work to end the early sexualization of children, codify unborn babies' right to live into law and defend our freedoms, our families, and our future. We can accomplish all this and more, but only if we work together.
