"By working collaboratively to help establish Canada's voice at the
World Conference, we are all joining the fight against hatred at home
and abroad. If Canadians speak strongly internationally, the world's
children will have their best chance to grow up free from racism and
discrimination - and to hope eventually for a world of peaceful
coexistence and respect."

«En collaborant pour aider à formuler le message que le Canada
communiquera lors de la Conférence mondiale, nous participons tous à la
lutte contre la haine au Canada et à l'étranger. Si les Canadiens
tiennent des propos énergiques dans l'arène internationale, les enfants
du monde entier auront plus de chances de grandir à l'abri du racisme
et de la discrimination - et de vivre éventuellement dans un monde où
la coexistence pacifique et le respect mutuel sont une réalité. »

- Women's Caucus Website for the WCAR
From May 1-5, 2000 at the First PrepCom of the World Conference Against
Racism (World Conference) more than 40 nongovernmental organizations
representing all regions of the world came together to form a Women's
Human Rights Caucus to address the interests of women and girls who are
victims of racism and/or ethnic discrimination. We did so because in
many cases, the intersection of racial and gender discrimination leaves
women facing violations of their rights that are unique to them. In our
view, the World Conference must include gender, as well as age, class,
sexual orientation, and economic status in its analysis in order for it
to be truly reflective of reality and for the remedies to be effective.
This complete analysis is necessary because the needs and visions of
those not present cannot be divined by others.
