This initiative by MADRE, Just Associates (JASS), Center for Women’s Global Leadership, AWID, Urgent Action Fund, Women in Migration Network, and Outright Action International is about a platform of principals that they will follow during this year’s UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) and their participation strategies.
This statement by WILPF calls for a gender perspective to be mainstreamed in the binding treaty in the intergovernmental working group on transnational corporations and other business enterprises with respect to human rights. WILPF urges for proposals that can lead to a treaty that's useful for women.
This initiative by WILPF explains its decision to not participate in CSW61. The travel ban prevented several women in conflict-affected countries from shaping policies and encouraging meaningful participation, which happens every year during CSW.
