Our voices matter.
As a consequence of the pressure placed on the Commission for the Status of Women by global women’s organisations, including Gender Concerns International, to postpone the CSW64 until the participation of everyone involved can be ensured, the Commission decided that no general debate will take place and that all side events planned by the UN and Member States related to the CSW64 will be cancelled. Gender Concerns International supports this decision and congratulates all women’s organisations that stood in solidarity yesterday. The organisation now urges the UN system to assist in finding a solution for the costs of cancellation for Women's and Civil Society Organisations involved.
