CSW HIGHLIGHTS:: 15-17 MARCH 1995

The 39th session of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW), meeting at UN Headquarters in New York from 15 March to 4 April 1995, will serve as the preparatory committee to negotiate the Platform for Action, the document to be adopted by the Fourth World Conference (FWCW) on Women in Beijing, in September 1995. The draft Platform for Action, which will serve as the basis for negotiations, was prepared by the FWCW Secretariat, with input from five regional group meetings, four expert group meetings, consultations with UN agencies, and informal, open-ended consultations in December 1994.
