UN Women

In July 2010, the United Nations General Assembly created UN Women as the global champion of gender equality delivering programmes, policies and standards to uphold women’s human rights. It operates on a global scale to make prudent technological growth a reality for women and girls, as well as advocates for women's equal involvement in every facet of society. The United Nations has made substantial strides in promoting gender equality over numerous decades, notably through pivotal agreements like the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, as well as the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW). It also actively supports inter-governmental bodies in their formulation of policies helping women and girls and working towards implementing those standards.
