The United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) will undertake a Review and appraisal of the implementation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action adopted at the Fourth World Conference on Women (1995) and of the outcome document of the twenty-third special session of the General Assembly (2000) during its forty-ninth session from 28 February to 11 March 2005. From 11 October 2004 to January 2005, WomenWatch, the website of the Inter-Agency Network on Women and Gender Equality (IANWGE), is hosting a series of online discussions on the critical areas of concern on the Platform for Action and other important issues to provide input into the review and appraisal. The discussions will be facilitated and moderated by UN entities that are members of the Inter-Agency Network on Women and Gender Equality. The discussions can be accessed at: http://www.un.org/womenwatch/forums/review/.
A summary of the discussions will be available at the CSW in February 2005 and posted on WomenWatch.
