As the Comoros' first lady, Ambari Daroueche has focused on humanitarian issues, women's rights, and children's rights.[1] In 2024, she addressed the need to include women in politics and democratic governance, telling the Crans Montana Foundation Forum, ""Research shows, moreover, that the status of women and the stability of nations are inextricably linked, and that societies that promote gender discrimination and allow oppressive norms to flourish are more likely to be unstable."[2]
