Liberia was a country engulfed in war, its women bearing the brunt of the conflict. While peace finally did come, the legacy of violence against women continues to haunt the country. But Liberia's women are now taking positions of power and filling roles usually dominated by men. We look now at how women in decision-making positions are helping to pave a new path to their country's future.

Tragically, up to three quarters of women and girls worldwide experience physical or sexual violence in their lifetime. And the effect on the millions of girls and women who are abused is devastating — not just on them personally, but also on their ability to fully participate in the development of their countries. Unless violence against women is curbed, meeting all of the eight Millennium Development Goals will be impossible.

Eradicating extreme hunger and poverty is a key focus of the Millennium Development goals set in 2000 by world leaders at the United Nations. Secure employment is critical to overcome poverty, yet worldwide 60 percent of people are working without a formal contract or social security protection. The majority of them are women and too often their labour rights are exploited. But one idea showing promise can be found in the homes of women in Cambodia. We travelled to Phnom Penn to see how the rights of home-based women workers are being protected, providing them with a ladder out of severe poverty.

The Government of Lao PDR, the United Nations and Development Partners have signed a Millennium Development Goal (MDG) Compact in support of the full achievement of the MDGs in Laos by 2015. It also calls for an additional goal to eliminate all UXOs from priority agricultural land over the next ten years, the so called MDG 9. The MDG Compact was signed in Vientiane on 20 October 2010, during the Round Table Meeting. The Round Table Meeting is organized every three years, as part of the Round Table Process (RTP).
