The visit in Ethiopia will have a two-part focus, partly on women’s health and rights in humanitarian crisis
situations and partly on female circumcision.
The trade and development cooperation minister and the Crown Princess will meet with a number of international and civil society organizations and leading persons in the area of women’s health and rights, and they will be enlightened about the complex of problems as well as possible solution models. That also applies to the particular challenges and vulnerabilities women and children face in humanitarian crises, including, among other things, gender-based violence.
In the capital, Addis Ababa, Her Royal Highness and Mogens Jensen will, in addition, meet with Ethiopian women entrepreneurs. Mogens Jensen will also carry out individual political discussions.
