She said: "I am very encouraged by the creation of this master's programme. I hope other academic institutions will follow this example, as it is vital that we broaden the discussion on how to advance women's rights and end impunity⁶ for crimes that disproportionately affect women, such as sexual violence in conflict.

朱莉说：“创办这一硕士课程令我倍受鼓舞。我希望其他学术机构也能效仿，因为在如何提高妇女权利方面，以及终结冲突中的性暴力等对妇女的暴力行为有罪不罚现象，都亟待广泛的讨论。

"I am looking forward to teaching and to learning from the students as well as to sharing my own experiences of working alongside governments and the United Nations".
