"We cannot change much if these men don't change the way they look at things, so we need to bring them into a dialogue," she says.

“如果這些男性不改變他們看待事物的方式，我們也改變不了什么，所以我們應(yīng)該跟他們進行一次對話，”她說。

Minister of Gender and Family Promotion Solina Nyirahabimana agrees that in 25 years of breaking gender stereotypes by telling women what they can do, "men have been left behind" in the conversation. She says her ministry has a more ambitious plan: It intends to prevent discrimination from being seeded, starting with instilling gender-equality principles in children.

性別和家庭關(guān)系促進委員會的部長索琳娜·尼拉哈比瑪納認為，在持續(xù)25年的打破性別固有認知的過程中，我們一直在告知女性她們可以做什么，但在這場對話中男性卻落后了。她說她的部門有更遠大的計劃：就是從根源上防止性別歧視，從給孩子們灌輸性別平等的思想開始。
