Commission on the Status of Women

Описание: Global movements are necessary to affect change. The Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) is the principal global intergovernmental body exclusively dedicated to the promotion of gender equality and the empowerment of women. CSW65 just closed out.

What were the outcomes of the event? How can women impact global advocacy and be more involved in the fight for women’s justice? What is the role of the church in advocating for justice for women and girls?

Join us for this important conversation.

Please note- From time to time we use an automatic transcription service to make these webinars accessible. This might appear underneath YouTube's auto-transcriptions, too. Currently, the transcriptions do not support multiple languages at a time, so some words will be transcribed phonetically. Closed captions are not 100% accurate, so please forgive any inaccurate transcriptions.

The Wednesdays with the World webinar series will be highlighting the ways in which the quest for justice is intersectional and global, allowing UCC members greater opportunities for increased awareness of global concerns and highlighting options for advocacy and action.
