Femmes for Freedom in New York: Tentoonstelling 'Portraits of Progress: Women Powering The Global Goals'


"Ik had nooit durven hopen dat het werk van Femmes for Freedom zou mogen schitteren in het hoofdkwartier van de Verenigde Naties. Deze gelegenheid is een monumentale erkenning en eer, en tevens een bewijs van de internationale impact van Femmes for Freedom. Dit succes was onmogelijk geweest zonder de onmisbare bijdragen van Mup en Imane, onze geweldige vrijwilligers, stagiaires, donateurs en Vital Voices. Hartelijk dank!


De tentoonstelling ‘Portraits of Progress: Women Powering The Global Goals’, een initiatief van Vital Voices in samenwerking met de VN, belicht de cruciale bijdragen van vrouwelijke changemakers aan de Sustainable Development Goals (SDG's) van de VN. Het onderstreept het cruciale belang van vrouwen in het stimuleren van echte verandering en ontwikkeling wereldwijd. De erkenning van Femmes for Freedom binnen deze context en deze tentoonstelling vervult ons met trots en bevestigt opnieuw de internationale betekenis en impact van onze inzet voor vrouwenrechten.

Ons bezoek aan New York bood ook een uitgelezen kans om verbindingen te leggen met andere vrouwenorganisaties en inspiratie op te doen voor toekomstige projecten. De tentoonstelling, die gedurende de hele maand maart te bezichtigen is in het hoofdkwartier van de Verenigde Naties, fungeert als een krachtig platform om de essentiële rol van vrouwen in het bereiken van de SDG's te erkennen."

CSW Revitalisation conversations in the region

  Photo: Facilitation team (Liliane Nkunzimana, Lopa Banerjee, Nadia van der Linde, Ivy Koek) What do you think about when you hear countries are committed to 'revitalize' the UN Commission on the  Status of Women (CSW)? "Oh, is it dying?" is one of the responses I've gotten, as if the CSW is holding on to its last straws at the moment, in desparate need of resuscitation. The challenges ahead for the current multilateral system, as well as for many of our national governments, are huge. In order to give gender equality and the rights of all women and girls a bit more of a boost, UN Women has been encouraging countries to commit to a process to 'revitalize' the CSW. And now that this has indeed been taken on board by governments from around the world in the recent Pact for the Future, the conversation is moving to: So what does that mean? During the NGO Forum in Geneva that took place just prior to the UNECE Beijing+30 Regional Review in October 2024 I co-f...

The CSW68 is a wrap!

  Met Nederlands ambassadeur en CSW Facilitator Yoka Brandt op de foto na afloop van de CSW68 “We have reservations on the text. We don’t have instructions to proceed to adoption .” After seven days of negotiations at the UN during this year’s Commission on the Status of Women (CSW), Nigeria almost blocked the negotiated outcome document from being adopted. Almost, because after some formal and informal interventions in Conference Room 4, the Nigerian delegate, flanked by the Dutch Ambassador Yoka Brandt, added: “I now have instructions to support the adoption.” On the balcony filled with civil society as well as in the plenary room there was a clear sigh of relief followed by enthusiastic applause, hugging and photo taking. We have Agreed Conclusions ! Early negotiations As usual, the CSW negotiations process started early February with a Zero Draft , developed by UN Women and the CSW Bureau. And with input and inspiration taken from the Secretary General Report. For the EU...

CSW68 Youth Dialogue statement by Fenna Timsi

  Dutch youth representative Fenna Timsi gives her statement in the CSW68 Youth Dialogue On Thursday afternoon, 14 March 2024, the Dutch youth representative Fenna Timsi gave her statement in the CSW68 Youth Dialogue inside the UN. The reflections from several participants of this year's Youth Dialogue - the second ever as part of the CSW - were that it has much improved compared to last year. Importantly, many more of the people who were given the floor were actually young people themselves. Many of the statements were rich and relevant in content with clear and important messages for the government delegates in the other room in the UN who had started the negotiations for the outcome document. Read Fenna's statement below or see the full Youth Dialogue here (Fenna's statement is at 1:20:10). Dear all,   As the Dutch UN Youth Representative, I thank you to speak independently on behalf of young people in the Netherlands, not on behalf of the government. I spoke to many yo...
