UN COMMISSION ON THE STATUS OF WOMEN | NEW YORK CITY
The UN Commission on the Status of Women is one of the largest annual gatherings of global leaders, NGOs, private sector actors, United Nations partners and activists from around the world focusing on the status of rights and empowerment of all women and girls, everywhere.
At the CSW's annual two-week meeting it addresses emerging issues relevant to its work worldwide. This year, its priority theme is "challenges and opportunities in achieving gender equality and the empowerment of rural women and girls", and its review theme is "participation in and access of women to the media, and information and communications technologies and their impact on and use as an instrument for the advancement and empowerment of women".
