As the world nears the 30th anniversary of the historic Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, ministers, senior officials, civil society, youth leaders, private sector representatives and UN experts will gather in Bangkok from 19 to 21 November 2024 to assess regional progress, emerging challenges and priority actions for accelerating gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls across Asia and the Pacific.
Despite significant strides over the last three decades, gender equality in Asia and the Pacific remains elusive, with social norms and economic inequalities persisting. This Asia-Pacific Ministerial Conference on the Beijing+30 Review aims to address these challenges and build momentum for actionable commitments to empower women and girls, with a vision for a more inclusive and sustainable future.
The Conference will also provide a platform for governments and other key stakeholders to explore policy options and strategies, including innovative approaches to address key issues that continue to hinder gender equality, such as economic disparities, gender-based violence, unpaid care work and the disproportionate impact of global crises on women and girls.
