Every year,
many gender equality and women’s rights activists organize around the UN
Commission on the Status of Women (better known as the CSW), taking place in
New York. With this blog, WO=MEN Dutch Gender Platform provides a
space for Dutch civil society (and their partners) to share highlights,
insights and experiences participating in CSW processes, in both Dutch and
English. Whether in New York or online.
The WO=MEN in New York blog also functions as an archive, chronicling the
involvement of Dutch civil society organisations in CSW, from 2008 on. In some
cases, advocates have also been keen to share updates from related processes
like the UN Commission on the Population and Development (CPD) which always
follows the CSW as well.
