As part of regional preparations to review progress in the implementation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action thirty years after its adoption (Beijing +30), ESCWA is partnering with the UN-Women Regional Office for Arab States and the League of Arab States to conduct a virtual regional dialogue for experts on older women and organizations for women and girls with disabilities on the regional review of Beijing +30.
The dialogue is aimed at exchanging experiences and best practices about the role of women-focused organizations of persons with disabilities in advancing the situation of these women and the implementation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, in addition to discussing specific challenges faced by women and girls with disabilities and older women.
The dialogue is expected to conclude with an outcome document to be presented to the high-level meeting on Beijing+30 in December 2024.
