In
March 2010, the Commission on the Status of Women will undertake a fifteen-year
review of the implementation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action
and the outcomes of the twenty-third special session of the General
Assembly. Emphasis will be placed on the sharing of experiences and
good practices, with a view to overcoming remaining obstacles and new
challenges, including those related to the Millennium Development Goals.
Member States, representatives of non-governmental organizations and of UN
entities will participate in the session. A series of parallel events
will provide additional opportunities for information exchange and networking.
Ongoing
national and regional review processes are feeding into the global review
process.
The
General Assembly is expected to mark the 15th anniversary of the adoption of
the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action in a commemorative meeting
during CSW.
