In 2025, as we mark 30 years since the Fourth World Conference on Women, the Beijing Declaration offers an urgent opportunity to renew our commitments to gender equality. Recent consultations co-anchored by Point of View, Gender at Work India, and the National CSO Steering Committee under UN Women Asia and the Pacific, provide key insights from civil society discussions on gender-based violence, disability rights, and power dynamics. Swipe through the post for the insights from our sessions! As we look ahead, we're committed to addressing these structural inequalities with diverse, global stakeholders.
