Let me say that too often adolescent girls face intersecting disadvantages because of their age, gender, ethnic background, sexual identity, religion affiliation, income, disability among other compounded factors. We have seen pictures, evoked images of girls in different situations that live with disadvantage, even without crisis. The perception and reality of vulnerability arising out of these multiple intersectionalities really creates that context of discrimination and differentiated impact of crisis.
During conflict or humanitarian situations, natural disasters or climate change, these factors exacerbate and disproportionately and differentially affect young women and girls due to neglect of their human rights and the intersecting forms gender-inequality and discrimination that they endure. So this is how we shine the light on this particular situation of girls in emergencies. As was mentioned, it is often forgotten that women and girls are not only helpless victims, they are sources of power, power to cope, power to prevent, power to reduce risk, power for resilience and transformation and to build back better after crisis. That is the power that we want to invoke and tap into.
We must be outraged about the disadvantages that girls still experience. But here has been some progress. Humanitarian actors and governments are much more aware today about addressing crises and resilience building with a gender lens and with a girls lens. But, we still have miles to go.
Imagine that to date, women and children account for more than 75 per cent of the refugees and displaced persons at risk from war, famine, persecution and natural disasters.

Answer:
Monopolies hinder competition because by definition, they are anti-competitive.
Explanation:
A monopoly is a firm that is the sole provider of a good for which there are no close substitutes.
Monopolies charge higher prices than they would in a competitive enviroment, and for this reason, they benefit the monopoly at the expense of the consumers.
Governments can set several policies to reduce monopoly power. One policy is simply to prohibit monopolies from forming, which is the case for most industries in developed nations.
Another policy is to simply take over the monopoly, and make it a public enterprise, so that the extra economic benefits of the monopoly are shared with the people (at least in theory).
