Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>Every March 8, and all month long, the world celebrates numerous exceptional women who have earned their place at the table.<\/p>\n

His Majesty\u2019s Correctional Services Commissioner General, LaMakhosini Phindile Dlamini also sent her hearty salute to all women especially Correctional officers, women in leadership as well as the incarcerated female populace within the facility.<\/p>\n

Dlamini said despite the systemic obstacles, innovative women were architecting transformative futures not only in government but also in public service, business, and entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n

The commissioner general said that seeing women rising to the moment as influential leaders is encouraging and that has been demonstrated habitually when given the opportunity. Women can certainly rise to the occasion and lead with respect, strength, and empathy.
\nInternational Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women.<\/p>\n

The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity.
\nThe commissioner general was of the view that having more women in positions of leadership will not only help to guide the world towards a place where gender equality is the norm, but it will also help to illustrate a future of endless possibilities for young girls so that they too can strive for greatness and aim to become formidable leaders eventually.<\/p>\n

achievements<\/p>\n

International Women\u2019s Day is a day to celebrate the achievements of women and to push for ways the rights of women can be improved. But the question remains as to what about those women in sections of society that often get ignored such as women in prison?<\/p>\n

Dlamini encouraged women to reshape their perception of how they view themselves as she urged them to step up and take the lead. She also said if women could deal with the inferiority complex, there would be no female leaders but leaders in the future.<\/p>\n

Celebrating the female officers, firstly, the ComGen applauded them for their diligence and commitment to their everyday duties. Clarifying this year\u2019s International Women\u2019s Day theme, \u2018Gender equality today for a sustainable tomorrow\u2019 the ComGen was of the view that it was a time for pausing, for imagining the universe as a world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination.<\/p>\n

A world that is diverse, equitable, and inclusive. this year\u2019s International Women\u2019s Day differ a little bit as it is also a time to reflect on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on women. This is especially on those women who constituted the dark figures of unreported abuse and violence, on women who were vulnerable because of the intersectional forms of discrimination, and on women who worked with the Government of Eswatini as forefronts.<\/p>\n

This month we are celebrating their work, their achievements, and their journeys. Furthermore, we are paying tribute to the deceased powerful and influential women who strive for success in the various top positions. Dlamini urged all women to take their rightful place and forge ahead to create and build a caring correctional system in this age of hope for corrections, rehabilitation, and social re-integration.<\/p>\n

Dlamini further acknowledged the support from other females. She also said it was an indisputable fact that women frequently faced obstacles that prevented them from fully realising their potential and their careers but the scales have tilted and women have become independent decision-makers who positively influence all they come into contact with and commended them for such bravery.<\/p>\n

She also advised families to give support and encouragement to their female relatives.
\nShe confidently stated that one of her priorities as a female leader was to make the institution more adaptable and accommodating of women by continuously providing a safe, professional environment where they are able to fulfil their goals for growth and perform their roles as mothers and professionals seamlessly with no negative impact on their lives.<\/p>\n

She also explained that being appointed to top positions requires so much hard work and dedication.
\nThe commissioner general asked the female inmates not to lose hope for their families as their time of release will come and be taken back to the society where they will continue with their roles as mothers or children.<\/p>\n

\u201cInmates are allowed to communicate with their loved ones by making phone calls and in that way, they can still feel the love of their family members\u201d. She then urged relatives of the incarcerated community to continue using the Mobile Money provision for transferring money to their loved ones in order for them to buy necessities like toiletries.<\/p>\n

Heaping praises on the Kingdom of Eswatini, the ComGen said she was excited by the progress the country has since made in terms of women empowerment, as it has seen the appointment of female Cabinet ministers, judges and legislators, to name a few.<\/p>\n

advising<\/p>\n

Dlamini felt the need to address the impact of future problems of children whose mothers are serving their sentences in prison advising society, families, and the entire nation to take good care of them \u201cStudies have shown that children whose mothers are sent to prison are more likely than their peers to have future problems.<\/p>\n

These include an increased likelihood of criminal offending, mental health problems, and drug and alcohol addictions.<\/p>\n

They are also likely to earn less than their counterparts as adults and to stop education at a younger age than is the norm,\u201d she said.
\nLastly, the ComGen condemned all forms of violence against women and children.<\/p>\n
