dc.description | The Africa Ministerial Pre-Consultative Meeting on the Commission on the Status of Women Sixty-First (CSW 61st) was held on 26th-27th January 2017 to prepare the annual event, which will take place in New York next month. In partnership with the African Union Commission, UN Women made a pre-consultative meeting at the UNECA HQ in Addis Ababa. The event was organized under the theme “Women’s Economic Empowerment in the Changing World.”
African Center for Gender Director at the ECA, Thokozile Ruzvidzo, said the pre-consultative meeting, which was organized by the ECA, the UN Women, and the African Union, is crucial to ensure an agreed position for the continent ahead of the CSW61 in New York in March. She added, “our goal here is to build consensus among African countries around issues pertinent to gender equality in the world of work in Africa with the view to promote an African voice essential to shaping and influencing the global CSW61 agreed conclusions.” | en |
