The country of Bolivia struggles with violence against women. The women of Bolivia have statistically lower literacy rate of about 16%. Studies have show that the education is the most important part to end violence. We believe that if the UN has better education about assault then mental, physical and mental assault will be reduced. Bolivia also has a low amount of women participating in government. This is very important. The people that help make laws for women should be women. We believe that this should be one of the main discussion topics in this comity. Women in government is a large, complex issue that needs to be addressed. The more women we have in politics the less assaults towards women. We propose that there needs to be large scale ad campaigns for women in government ran all over the world. We believe that this will be on of the easiest and effective strategies for getting more women involved in politics. This is one of the most important issues that we face coming into the future and we hope that we can help resolve it.
