“The promotion of gender equality is critical for the realisation of the Post-Development Agenda. The African Union designated 2015 “ The year of the advancement of women empowerment and development towards Agenda 2063” in order to mobilise our individual and collective actions around this key issue. Gender equality and women empowerment is central to the achievement of human development, progress and the elimination of the scourge of poverty and deprivation. We must continue to build upon the achievements that have been realised since 1995 Fourth United Nations Conference on Women and the Beijing Declarations and its platform for Action.”
