Annalena Baerbock, president of the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly, set the tone for the event with her address. Sima Bahous, Executive Director of UN Women, reinforced the core message that women\u2019s rights are fundamentally human rights, emphasising the importance of global commitment to gender equality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The ceremony also included heartfelt contributions from prominent figures in the entertainment industry. Actress and activist Anne Hathaway addressed the gathering, sharing her support for the cause and highlighting the importance of advocacy. In addition, Michelle Williams, renowned singer from Destiny\u2019s Child, lent her voice to the movement, further amplifying the significance of unity in championing women\u2019s rights.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Antonio Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, reiterated his ongoing commitment to women\u2019s rights. He emphasised that meaningful action must be driven by civil societies across the globe, encouraging collaborative efforts to effect lasting change for women and girls everywhere.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Malala Yousafzai, Nobel Peace Prize laureate, delivered a moving speech at the ceremony, highlighting that segregation persists after five years of Taliban rule. She called for justice and equality for all women, emphasizing the need for global solidarity and action, especially for those affected by conflict.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">A<u>t the Bahai International centre (BIC)<\/u><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Exploring the Intersection of Education, Entrepreneurship, and Justice<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Experts from around the world gathered to discuss the links between education, entrepreneurship, and justice, sharing ideas on promoting gender equality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The session was led by Labour Member of Parliament Uma Kumaran, who facilitated the discussion and ensured that a broad range of experiences and insights were represented.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><strong>Nathifa Forde<\/strong>, Executive Director of Her Future, addressed the critical support provided to survivors of gender-based violence.

She emphasised the ongoing need to encourage and support girls in pursuing careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Following the presentations, attendees divided into smaller groups to develop concepts and solutions based on the themes discussed. I represented our group, several shared steps identified as crucial for progress worldwide:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Empowering women at the community level<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Providing legal education for all<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Increasing access to justice<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Engaging male allies in the movement<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Promoting women to senior leadership positions<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">These proposed actions reflect a collective vision for advancing gender equality, with an emphasis on grassroots involvement, education, advocacy, and partnership across genders.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">UK Delegation Engagement at CSW70<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">As part of my involvement with the UK delegation to CSW70, I participated in meetings held at the UK mission in New York. The delegation included official representatives, notably Jackie Smith, Minister of Equality. These sessions provided valuable insight into the negotiation processes that shaped the final statement for CSW70, allowing us to better understand the factors influencing its outcome.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Among those present were four Members of Parliament, including Baroness Fiona Hogkiss and Baroness Harriet Harman, who were both official delegates. Their direct communication with UK civil society was greatly appreciated, as they dedicated time to sharing ideas and celebrating our collective achievements. Looking ahead, there was a shared sense of anticipation for further progress. It remains crucial to ensure that BFWG continues to be an active part of this alliance, strengthening our commitment to future collaboration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The UN town hall marked the general secretary\u2019s final appearance, where he emphasized gender parity and supporting women\u2019s ambitions. Civil society members also shared their perspectives with a global audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><u>The Canadian mission<\/u> global network of peace builders held an event hosted by the Canadian ambassador, where Senator Rechie Valdez discussed her experiences in peacebuilding through shared values and stories, inspiring grassroots members. Baroness Harriet Harman, the Prime Minister\u2019s Special Envoy for Women and Girls, highlighted that political parties compete to involve women on the feminist agenda as they say it as a vote winner. She noted that growing female representation in Parliaments across the world fosters international collaboration despite cultural differences. She also mentioned Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper's commitment to women's roles in conflict zones. Viola Samuel from Nigeria spoke on women's peacekeeping efforts in South Sudan and Congo. Friba Rezayee, originally from Afghanistan and now in Vancouver, who competed for Afghanistan in the 2024 Olympics in Judo, emphasized the importance of education and sports for women's equality. Her work supported funding scholarships which have enabled over forty Afghan women to study in Canada, helping reduce gender apartheid. Palestinian activist Rima Salah delivered closing remarks on how women in politics can strengthen communication between civil society and government, supporting female parliamentarians.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Lunch was hosted by the American GWI NFA, giving us the opportunity to meet mostly virtual North American members and other delegates who attended.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The UK delegation attended a pleasant reception at the ambassador's residence, offering an opportunity for more personal interaction with members.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">European Women's Lobby Event: Advancing Gender Parity Through Rule of Law<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The European Women\u2019s Lobby (EWL) hosted a significant event at the EU mission house, focusing on the \u201cGender Parity Road Map\u201d and emphasising the necessity for this initiative to be firmly rooted in the rule of law as a prerequisite. Key figures in attendance included Dina Login, the current president; Mary Collins, secretary general; Anne Negre, vice president of EWL and immediate past president of UWE who attended online; as well as Petra Bayer, president of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Petra Bayer outlined several recommendations to advance political parity. These included the adoption of quotas for women, accompanied by sanctions for non-compliance; measures to reduce sexual harassment; the need to lead by example; and the establishment of clearly defined spaces in parliament for women across all parties. These proposals resonated strongly with me, particularly as I have had previous engagement with similar discussions at the Houses of Parliament 50:50 Parliament event.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Alena Mastantutuono, vice president of the Social and Economic Committee, highlighted the importance of applying a gender lens to policies concerning trade and migration. She emphasised issues such as access to justice, the gender pay gap, and pension equality. According to Mastantutuono, the path to gender parity must extend beyond parliament, encompassing trade unions and boardrooms as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Anne Negre voiced her concerns about the persistent lack of awareness regarding legal rights and access to justice. She noted that parity in political parties has been on the Council of Europe\u2019s agenda since 1989. In January 2026, EWL launched its road map to parity, which included advocacy work and a letter template designed for use by member states and policymakers. This initiative is already underway, with responses from various stakeholders beginning to emerge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Sasa Gavric and Chista Schweng stressed the importance of equality in thought processes and reaffirmed the essential role of quotas. They asserted that the road to parity should begin by engaging political parties, as these entities act as gatekeepers. They encouraged the use of gender-sensitive parliamentary terminology and urged attendees to adopt such language when interacting with their local MPs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Ligia Nobrega, from the European Institute for Gender Equality, discussed the critical role of data collection and reporting. These efforts support civil society actions and facilitate ongoing collaboration with policymakers, helping to track progress and promote SDG5. The event featured a lively debate, during which attendees received the Gender Parity Toolkit. This toolkit addresses violence against women in politics and is regarded as a cornerstone for achieving gender parity. Key strategies include increasing the number of women in the political sphere \u2014 particularly those reaching higher levels \u2014 and recognising intersectional cultural differences among participants.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Education as a Pathway to Justice: Irish Mission Event in New York<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The event held at the Irish Mission in New York placed a strong emphasis on the pivotal role of education in advancing justice for women and girls.

He explained that these measures are central to advancing gender equality in education. Additionally, UNICEF is collaborating with technology partners to develop alternative educational strategies, promote female leadership, and demand stronger accountability from both corporations and governments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Dr Isata Mohoi, Sierra Leone\u2019s Minister of Gender, underscored the necessity of prioritising free education and access to STEM subjects for girls, identifying these as critical steps towards gender justice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The event concluded with GWI president Pat Patton reiterating the call for universal free education and enhanced access to technology, reinforcing the message that such measures are vital for empowering women and girls to achieve justice and equality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">That evening, we had dinner with GWI members and discussed various local and global issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">At the GWI Breakfast meeting, Maureen and Meriala ( GWI representee UN &amp; UNICEF) raised concerns about reduced funding at UNICEF and the UN Committee on Social Development. They stressed that financial constraints hinder policy implementation and progress on social development. Their comments reinforced the need for consistent funding to ensure effective policies and programmes within international organisations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">UN Women UK Film Preview: \"Bystander\"<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">At the United Nations Headquarters, I attended a screening of \"Bystander\" by @unwomenuk.
