The 65th UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW65) will take place in March 2021. NGO advocacy work starts months ahead, and we have already submitted several written statements to UN Women. The priority theme of CSW65 is women in leadership and decision-making, as well as ending violence against women, to achieve women's empowerment. FAWCO was the lead organization submitting a joint Written Statement for CSW65 developed by members of the NGO Committee on the Status of Women Vienna. FAWCO joined partner organizations in endorsing three additional joint statements: by Soroptimist International, Graduate Women International, and the International Federation of Business and Professional Women.
