In recent years, the current American administration has distanced itself from the important mission of the United Nations to prevent war and protect Universal Human Rights though American Women such First Lady of the United States Eleanor Roosevelt was a leader in forming the United Nations.

 

“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent”

—Eleanor Roosevelt

1946 first United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW). Maggie Hallahan was a UN photographer in 1995 Beijing Fourth World Conference on Women where Hillary Clinton said “human rights are women’s rights, and women’s rights are human rights once and for all”—inspiring women around the world.

“Consent does not exist in child marriage,” Sara Tasneem is a US forced child marriage survivor who will be going to the United Nations for her first time.

“Women + men = effective change,” says Maggie Collins, former US Marine and Iraq veteran ensuring that those who swear or affirm to serve the United States can do so safe from an enemy within their own ranks. The group has joined forces on the common causes of justice, Peace and Universal Human Rights, which date back to the UN’s charter declaration, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, signed in 1945 in San Francisco.

About ManUp Campaign - ManUp is a global campaign to activate youth to stop violence against women and girls. Our call to action challenges each of us to “man up” and declare that violence against women and girls must end. Sports, music, arts, reflection, and technology are some of the primary ways we connect with other people. These are also ways we experience life, transmit and share culture. More importantly, messages about gender, societal expectations, and our identities are passed down to us in these and other forms. The ManUp Campaign is partnering with young men and women around the world by providing training, resources, and support to youth-informed initiatives. This partnership works to build a network of young champions and defenders of gender equality, gender inclusiveness, and opportunity. We link their efforts to those of community-based and sponsor organizations, the entertainment and sports communities towards our common cause.

Scott, who was shot and killed on July 17, 1996 at the age of 24 while attending a graduation party in his San Francisco neighborhood. George’s sons, Gabriel and Kyron, were ages 2 and 5 at the time of their father’s demise. The day after George’s

Sara Tasneem https://tasneemsfadvocacy.home.blog/

 

Survivor Advocate for: Ending child marriage in the United States. ManUp Campaign consultative status with

ECOSOC for the CSW64 UN Delegate based in California.

 

Sara Tasneem is a forced child marriage survivor. As a mentor and activist, she works publicly to enact legislation that would legally ban child marriage in 48 states. Sara works to create awareness of child marriage in the United States by sharing her story across national and international media outlets, through educational seminars, public speaking events, and by lobbying legislative bodies to end child marriage. She has a Master’s degree in Public Administration and a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Golden Gate University.

 

Sara volunteers as a mentor to young girls and women who are leaving their abusive forced child marriages and is a member of the steering committee for the National Coalition to End Child Marriage in the United States, She works with multiple non-profits along with other survivors to create a network of survivor led advocacy to end child marriage in the U.S.

 

At just fifteen, Tasneem was forced to marry a 28-year-old stranger. Sadly, she is not alone. Statistics from non- profit Unchained At Last report that 248,000 children as young as 12 were married in the United States between

2000 and 2010. 86% of child marriages in the U.S. happen to girls marrying adult men (Frontline, 2017). According to Sara, ending child marriage in the United States is an uphill battle because each state must

approve new bills limiting the age of marriage to 18. Many states, including California, are reticent to pass such bills because of age-old patriarchal views of marriage and pregnancy. In 2017, Delaware and New Jersey

passed the marriage laws necessary to limit the age of marriage to 18 with no exceptions. After the age of 18, individuals are considered adults and can access the vital services they might need if they experience abuse or want to divorce their partners. Currently, 48 out of 50 states still allow children under the age of 18 to marry with parental consent.

Maggie Collins

https://www.linkedin.com/in/maggie-collins-mba-ba20212a/

 

Advocate for: Stopping gender oppression in and of our military. ManUp Campaign consultative status with

ECOSOC for the CSW64 UN Delegate, based in California.

 

 

 

Former Sergeant Maggie Collins served as an active duty United States Marine for 5 years during the “Global War on Terror,” serving a tour in Iraq in 2005. As a Marine, Maggie bore witness to and experienced the indoctrinated culture of sexual dominance and violence that was intrinsic to her military training and service. Events of sexual harassment, intimidation and violence were common throughout the ranks.

 

The Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) defines some parameters that guide Commanders when

incidents of sexual assault are reported. However, they still have sufficient leeway to kill a report before it even makes it to military law enforcement. They can protect predators and punish victims . . . or not. They are akin to police officer, lawyer and judge . . . and both the accused and accuser may be under their command. Given the role of Commanders, the UCMJ proves it is wholly unprepared to protect service members from predators.

Once the crime is perpetrated, the cultural, social, legal and political systems in place actually serve to protect perpetrators and re-victimize survivors.

 

All of this can abate with thoughtful, planned change.

 

Maggie is researching and networking to find the best actionable solutions to ensure that those who swear or affirm to serve the United States can do so safe from an enemy within their own ranks.

 

Stephanie O’Connor

Instagram: connervarin Facebook: connervarin Twitter: connervarin https://www.linkedin.com/in/connervarin/ http://www.connervarin.com/

 

Advocate For: Ending ethnic health care disparities. ManUp Campaign consultative status with ECOSOC for the CSW64 UN Delegate based in California.

 

Stephanie is a visual storyteller and entrepreneur. She is a photojournalist, radio commentator, start-up branding consultant and travel industry expert regarding the African diaspora. Her extensive research and market development in Southern Africa helped her speak to the similar conditions Black women across the diaspora are facing.

 

Stephanie leads from the heart and believes in applying cultural sensitivity to all perspectives to reach team goals. Her life experiences have brought her to see her unique mission, which is to influence people to begin the hard journey of self-care to harvest the benefit of strong body and mind.

 

Until recently, there were more undernourished people in the world than those that are over- weight. Our world has recently flipped to the other side of that pendulum, and there are now more overweight people on our planet than undernourished. This creates alarming problems that Stephanie has personally witnessed in her own life and in the lives of the diverse women in her global community. In her work to address that, Stephanie’s discussions center on how to create new tools that we’ve never had to create before on such a mass scale in society. She believes the secret is two-fold: 1) Act locally within your own kitchen and your own family and in your own body, and 2) Act globally and responsibly by leveraging your political power and community.

 

The world's population growth will begin its radical decline in year 2040, which will mean in America, people of color who have unjust lack of access of health education and qualified health professionals must come together to overcome obesity and nutrition-related illnesses. Stephanie is helping communities claim their sovereignty to lead a healthy and happy life.
