Civil Society Advisory Groups
Consultations in global, regional and national civil
society advisory groups help UN Women draw upon their diverse expertise,
experience, outreach and knowledge. They sharpen ideas and strategies for our
advocacy initiatives, policies and programmes.
The Global Advisory Group was formed following extensive
discussions with civil society networks and their nomination of members.
Convened by UN Women’s Executive Director, it has 25 members,
who include leaders of grass-roots, rural and community-based groups, and
indigenous peoples’ organizations; scholars; and activists and male advocates
for gender equality and women’s rights.
National and regional groups are established based on
local priorities and practices, under the broad guideline of creating a just,
balanced and effective body. Members of different groups maintain regular
contact through a web-based platform.
For more information, see the current list of
civil society advisory groups and guiding
principles for their formation and operation.
