REGISTRATION FOR WOMEN DELIVER’S
2016 GLOBAL CONFERENCE IS NOW OPEN
|
Women Deliver’s 4th Global Conference,
taking place 16-19 May 2016, will be the largest gathering on girls’ and
women’s health and rights in the last decade and one of the first major
global conferences following the launch of the Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs). Women Deliver’s
conferences have become some of the world’s biggest global convenings to
focus on the health, rights, and wellbeing of girls and women. Building on
the successes of Women Deliver’s three previous global gatherings—in London
in 2007, in Washington in 2010, and in Kuala Lumpur in 2013—the 2016 Conference will bring together world leaders,
advocates, policymakers, journalists, young people, researchers, and leaders
of corporate companies and civil society to showcase what it means and how it
works when girls and women become the focus of development efforts. The conference, which
will be held in Copenhagen, Denmark from 16–19 May 2016, will be the largest
gathering on girls’ and women’s health, rights, and wellbeing in more than a
decade, and one of the first major global conferences following the launch of
the SDGs. The focus of the conference will be on how to implement the SDGs so
they matter most for girls and women, with a specific focus on health – in
particular maternal, sexual, and reproductive health and rights – and on
gender equality, education, environment, and economic empowerment.
