‘Predictor of peace’: women backed at conference
Australia’s new Ambassador to Gender Equality says that women in leadership positions can change the behavior of a country and provide more lasting peace.
Michelle O’byrne promised to force more women to solve the conflict solution, saying that a country’s gender equality frame could be the “forest of peace”.
After a career in federal and state politics, the former Tazmanian workers were introduced as a new ambassador, including the portfolios of education and workplace relations.
On Tuesday, Mrs. O’byrne spoke at the Australian Women, Peace and Security Conference in Brisbane and detailed his goals for the first time after taking the new role.
He said that the existence of women in leadership positions is a good indicator of a nation’s behavior.
O’byrne AAP, “If you are looking at how safe and risk of conflict are under the risk of conflict … If you look at the framework of gender equality in these countries, it is the forester of peace.”
“Women on the negotiation table, women in leadership positions, women who are sure that everyone in society heard the voices of the society actually change the behavior of countries.
“While trying to solve a conflict, there is a really good evidence that the women on the table provide a much more permanent and sustainable peace throughout the whole society.”
Ms. O’byrne was a member of Bass Federal from 1998 to 2004 before representing voters in the Tasmanian Parliament from 2006 to 2025.
In its new role, Australia aims to end the termination of gender -based violence, promote economic equality and inclusive trade, and to help women’s efforts to support the participation of climate and human actions.

“When the design of national peace infrastructure, we must be there with our evidence, so that these processes integrate climate justice and climate security agenda and prevention issues.”
