	Ongoing shortfalls and disparities leave over 1 billion people with disabilities behind by International Disability Alliance, agencies   The International Disability Alliance (IDA) operates as a global advocate for the rights of persons with disabilities. IDA brings together over 1,100 organisations of persons with disabilities and their families from across eight global and six regional networks.   Together we promote the inclusion of persons with disabilities across global efforts to advance human rights and sustainable development. We support organisations of persons with disabilities to hold their governments to account and advocate for change locally, nationally and internationally.   With member organisations around the world, IDA represents over one billion people worldwide living with disabilities. Among them are some of the world’s largest – and most frequently overlooked – marginalised group.   3 Dec. 2024   Women and girls with disabilities are the best champions for upholding their rights. (OHCHR)   UN Experts urged governments to amplify the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future, particularly women and girls with disabilities:   "Despite the fast-approaching deadline for achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the promise of full gender equality remains elusive. “For women and girls with disabilities, this goal is even more distant due to compounded discrimination,” the Experts stated.   Women and girls with disabilities are disproportionately affected by poverty, inadequate healthcare including sexual and reproductive health, limited access to inclusive education, employment in the open market, digital devices and technology, increased exposure to abuse and violence, including sexual violence, trafficking in persons, and limited access to justice.   And particularly for those with intellectual and psychosocial disabilities, denial of legal capacity often strips them of the freedom to make critical choices, including over their own bodies.   “Women and girls with disabilities are too often invisible and their needs and concerns are insufficiently considered in public policies on gender equality and on the rights of persons with disabilities,” noted the Experts.   This is aggravated by the widespread lack of disaggregated quantitative and qualitative data based on disability, age, sex, and gender, and their intersection.   The Experts stressed that the voices and experiences of all women and girls with disabilities must be part of public policy and decision-making priorities and commitments.   “They need to be more represented in leadership roles across all sectors – including within movements promoting and advocating for the human rights of women and of persons with disabilities respectively. Women and girls with disabilities need to be fully consulted on all policies that affect their lives and to be included in all discussions and decision-making processes” the Experts urged.   Further, all aspects of the intersection between gender and disabilities need to be considered, for example how the situation of families – and mostly mothers and other female relatives – impacts the human rights of children with disabilities.   The Experts recalled the need to establish gender-responsive, disability-inclusive, and age-sensitive care and support systems.   The upcoming 30th anniversary of the Beijing Declaration provides a pivotal opportunity for governments to assess progress in advancing the rights of women and girls with disabilities, and all women and girls who are left behind and whose needs are insufficiently addressed. While recent national reports reveal achievements, persistent gaps highlight the need for targeted policies and investment.   http://www.ohchr.org/en/special-procedures/sr-disability http://www.ohchr.org/en/documents/thematic-reports/ahrc5856-thirty-years-implementation-beijing-declaration-and-platform   28 Oct. 2024   The United Nations Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights issues key recommendations on the rights of persons with disabilities in recent 76th session.   Earlier this month, the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights published its Concluding Observations on Albania, Cyprus, Honduras, Iceland, Kyrgyzstan, Malawi, and Poland, adopted during its 76th session (9th to 27th September). The Committee included recommendations on and explicit references to issues of persons with disabilities in all the 13 concluding observations adopted during 2024, reaching a total of 65 recommendations and references.   The International Disability Alliance has produced its compilations of Disability-Related Extracts from the Concluding Observations for the sessions 75th and 76th held in 2024.   In 2024, the 75th and 76th sessions of the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights covered a range of important issues related to the rights of persons with disabilities including: Discrimination and social inclusion; Access to inclusive quality education; Employment; Poverty and economic inequality; Social protection; Infrastructure and accessibility.   The 75th session of the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in February 2024 reviewed six countries and issued disability-related recommendations for all of them, reaching a total of 31 recommendations. Key issues include:   Indonesia: The Committee raised concerns over the use of shackling on people with psychosocial disabilities and recommended preventing this practice and improve mental health services. The Committee was concerned about the lack of school infrastructure and digital access, with recommendations to enhance education quality and access, especially for children with disabilities.   Iraq: The Committee raised concerns about unemployment, particularly among marginalized groups like people with disabilities. Recommendations included enhancing vocational training and combating poverty, with particular attention to disadvantaged groups including persons with disabilities.   Ireland: The Committee pointed out the lack of disaggregated data on discrimination, calling for better data collection and comprehensive anti-discrimination laws. It emphasized improving employment opportunities and tackling poverty, especially for disadvantaged groups. In particular, it recommended to "take measures to ensure that the minimum wage applies to all workers, all sectors and all forms of employment, including by repealing sections 35 (1), on different rates of remuneration for persons with disabilities, of the Employment Equality Act".   Mauritania: Issues with unemployment, education access, and social security, especially for marginalized groups, were highlighted. Recommendations included improving education quality and infrastructure and to "guarantee access to quality education for children from disadvantaged backgrounds, in particular children with disabilities;"   Romania: Concerns were raised about discrimination against marginalized groups, lack of social housing, and high school dropout rates among Roma and rural children. Recommendations included addressing discrimination education, improving employment conditions for vulnerable groups, and to "increase the availability of adequate and affordable housing, in particular by expanding the supply of social housing, paying particular attention to members of disadvantaged and marginalized groups, such as persons with disabilities...";   Sweden: Concerns about discrimination, particularly in employment and housing, were raised. The Committee recommended stronger anti-discrimination measures, including ensuring that "effective judicial remedies and accessible legal aid, in addition to administrative remedies are available to victims of harassment, hate crimes and discrimination on the grounds of disability...", and seeking improvements in education, especially addressing disparities in access for marginalized students.   The 76th Session of the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in September 2024 covered seven countries: Albania, Cyprus, Honduras, Iceland, Kyrgyzstan, Malawi and Poland. All seven countries received disability-related recommendations, with a total of 34 specific references to disabilities.   A common recommendation to Albania, Iceland, Malawi and Poland was to consider ratifying the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Other key issues include:   Albania: Issues with accessible infrastructure and inclusive education were identified. Recommendations included improving public infrastructure by fully implementing Law No. 93/2014 on Inclusion and Accessibility for Persons with Disabilities and its related by-laws and other measures, and ensuring inclusive education for children with disabilities by " ensuring the provision of accessible and adapted materials, inclusive curricula, and individualised support and accommodation."   Cyprus: Concerns focus on unemployment among persons with disabilities and the lack of support for families with disabled children. Recommendations suggest targeted employment schemes and inclusive education reforms, as well as to "take all the necessary measures to ensure that children with disabilities can enjoy their right to grow up in a family environment".   Honduras: The focus is on combating discrimination against disadvantaged groups, including persons with disabilities. Recommendations stress the need for ensuring access to effective remedies and reparations to victims of discrimination and violence; and inclusive employment strategies and access to social security.   Iceland: High unemployment among persons with disabilities, violence against them, and poverty are significant issues. Recommendations include promoting employment and combating poverty for vulnerable groups, including by enhancing "efforts to increase the amount of old age pension, unemployment and disability benefits to ensure they provide an adequate standard of living for all recipients."   Kyrgyzstan: Persistent structural discrimination, including against persons with disabilities, is highlighted. The country was urged to adopt comprehensive anti-discrimination laws, improve social security access and increase efforts to reduce unemployment by implementing public sector employment schemes, vocational training programmes, and partnerships with the private sector, ensuring that its policies tackle the root causes of unemployment, paying particular attention to persons with disabilities..".   Malawi: The country lacks a comprehensive anti-discrimination legal framework, leading to stigma and unemployment for disabled people. Recommendations call for better inclusive education, social protection through the Social Cash Transfer Program (SCTP) "providing both basic income security and, when necessary, disability-related costs", and adopting "a comprehensive labour strategy with a precise, time-bound action plan to support women, youth and persons with disabilities in accessing decent employment..".   Poland: Issues with non-discrimination, employment for persons with disabilities and insufficient enforcement of accessibility laws were noted. Recommendations encourage "public education programmes on discriminatory norms and beliefs to combat the stigmatization of persons with disabilities," and targeted employment programs and better legal protections.   http://www.internationaldisabilityalliance.org/blog/committee-economic-social-and-cultural-rights-issues-key-recommendations-rights-persons http://www.internationaldisabilityalliance.org/blog/cedaw-committee-releases-89th-session-concluding-observations-nearly-80-recommendations-and http://www.internationaldisabilityalliance.org/blog/committee-rights-child-issued-recommendations-children-disabilities-its-97th-session http://www.internationaldisabilityalliance.org/blog/opds-advocate-disability-representation-global-climate-policies http://www.internationaldisabilityalliance.org/blog/summary-un-disability-and-development-report-2024   http://www.internationaldisabilityalliance.org/blog/global-disability-summit-2025-accelerating-inclusion-opd-leadership-times-change http://www.globaldisabilitysummit.org http://www.educationcannotwait.org/news-stories/press-releases/galvanizing-support-education-the-global-disability-summit http://minorityrights.org/disability-declaration http://www.globaldisabilitysummit.org/resource/global-disability-inclusion-report/ http://www.internationaldisabilityalliance.org/blog/who-announces-launch-global-initiative-health-equity-persons-disabilities-during-global http://www.lshtm.ac.uk/newsevents/news/2022/missing-billion-report-proposes-pathway-close-major-health-gap-people http://www.lshtm.ac.uk/research/centres/international-centre-evidence-disability/missing-billion http://www.globaldisabilitysummit.org/   http://www.openglobalrights.org/no-one-left-in-the-heat-for-disabled-people-heat-waves-are-a-human-rights-crisis/ http://www.internationaldisabilityalliance.org/blog/ida-youth-leader-calls-new-youth-centered-disability-inclusive-development-system-un-hlpf-2025 http://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1j/k1ja23zkv9 http://www.ohchr.org/en/treaty-bodies/crpd http://www.ohchr.org/en/special-procedures/sr-disability/annual-thematic-reports http://social.desa.un.org/cosp/18th-session http://news.un.org/en/audio/2025/06/1164366   http://www.inclusive-education-initiative.org/blog/moving-intention-action-disability-inclusion-education http://minorityrights.org/disability-declaration http://www.driadvocacy.org/news/dri-founder-eric-rosenthal-speaks-un-side-event-disability-trafficking http://www.icj.org/africa-african-commission-on-human-and-peoples-rights-calls-for-the-full-continental-ratification-and-implementation-of-the-african-disability-protocol/ http://www.icj.org/resource/africa-bridging-the-gap-to-realization-of-the-rights-of-persons-with-disabilities/ http://www.icj.org/asia-pacific-kathmandu-declaration-launched-calling-for-action-to-ensure-access-to-justice-for-persons-with-disabilities http://www.icj.org/africa-persons-with-disabilities-push-for-inclusive-and-accessible-justice-systems/   http://www.ohchr.org/en/statements-and-speeches/2025/03/hc-turk-technology-must-support-people-disabilities-not-deepen http://www.developmentpathways.co.uk/publications/good-practice-in-disability-inclusive-social-security-2/ http://social.desa.un.org/publications/un-flagship-report-on-disability-and-development-2024 http://atscalepartnership.org/ http://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9789240063600 Visit the related web page
	Overhaul discriminatory laws and practices enabling economic violence against women by UN Human Rights Council, agencies Interactive Dialogue with Working Group on Discrimination against Women and Girls   Mar. 2025   Women and girls are demanding change – and they deserve nothing less. (UN News)   The basic rights of women and girls are facing unprecedented growing threats worldwide, from higher levels of discrimination to weaker legal protections -and less funding for programmes and institutions which support and protect women.   UN Women’s latest report Women's Rights in Review 30 Years After Beijing, published on the UN 50th International Women’s Day on 8 March, shows that in 2024, nearly a quarter of governments worldwide reported a backlash on women’s rights.   Despite decades of advocacy, economic instability, the climate crisis, rising conflicts and political pushback have contributed to a worsening landscape for gender equality.   While 87 countries have been led by a woman at some point in history, true parity is still a long way off. Alarmingly, UN Women reports that a woman or girl is killed every 10 minutes by a family member or intimate partner.   The digital space is also exacerbating gender disparities, the UN agency argues, with artificial intelligence and some social media platforms amplifying harmful stereotypes. Meanwhile, women and girls remain underrepresented in digital and tech-related fields.   Without robust and gender-responsive social protections, vulnerable people can fall through the cracks. Women and girls are more likely to be at risk for poverty or to experience it, as evidenced in 2023, where 2 billion women and girls had no social protection coverage. In 2024, 393 million women and girls were living in extreme poverty.   In the past decade, there has been a disturbing 50 per cent increase in the number of women and girls directly exposed to conflict, and women’s rights defenders confront daily harassment, personal attacks and even death, UN Women said.   These findings underscore that crises such as COVID-19, soaring food and fuel prices, and the undermining of democratic institutions are not just slowing progress – but actively reversing gains.   “When women and girls can rise, we all thrive,” said UN Secretary-General António Guterres in his message for the day. Yet, “instead of mainstreaming equal rights, we are seeing the mainstreaming of misogyny.”   “Together, we must stand firm in making human rights, equality and empowerment a reality for all women and girls, for everyone, everywhere,” he emphasised.   UN Women Executive Director Sima Bahous echoed this urgency: “Complex challenges stand in the way of gender equality and women’s empowerment, but we remain steadfast. Women and girls are demanding change – and they deserve nothing less.”   As the world marks the 30th anniversary of the Beijing Declaration in 2025, the most visionary roadmap for furthering women’s rights, UN Women's latest report shows progress that must be acknowledged.   Since 1995, countries have enacted 1,531 legal reforms advancing gender equality, maternal mortality has dropped by a third and women’s representation in parliaments has more than doubled.   Yet, as the report makes clear, significant work remains to achieve the 2030 Agenda. The newly introduced Beijing+30 Action Agenda outlines priority areas to accelerate progress.   While countries may signal their commitments to gender equality through adopting gender-responsive and inclusive policies, without follow-through and proper funding, they may have little impact in the long term.   Equal access to technology and online safety must be ensured for all women and girls, while investments in social protection, universal health care and education are all deemed essential for women’s economic independence.   Women-led organizations must receive dedicated funding to build lasting peace and women’s leadership in environmental policies must be prioritised, ensuring equal access to green jobs.   Meanwhile, countries must adopt and implement legislation to end violence against women and girls, in all its forms, with well-resourced plans that include support for community-based organizations on the front lines of response and prevention.   Turning words into action   As gender equality faces one of its most challenging periods in decades, UN Women is calling on governments, businesses and civil society to reinforce their commitments to women’s rights, to ensure that all women and girls, everywhere, can fully enjoy their rights and freedoms.   http://www.unwomen.org/en/get-involved/international-womens-day http://www.unwomen.org/sites/default/files/2025-03/womens-rights-in-review-30-years-after-beijing-en.pdf http://www.unwomen.org/en/news-stories/feature-story/2025/02/womens-rights-in-2025-hope-resilience-and-the-fight-against-backlash http://www.unwomen.org/en/articles/timeline/never-backing-down-women-march-forward-for-equal-rights http://www.unwomen.org/en/articles/explainer/the-beijing-declaration-and-platform-for-action-at-30-and-why-that-matters-for-gender-equality http://www.unwomen.org/en/news-stories http://equalitynow.org/resource/words-deeds-beijing30-report/   June 2024   Economic violence as a form of gender-based violence against women and girls, by Volker Turk, United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights:   "We owe the women’s rights movement some of the most extraordinary progress in human rights of our generation. And it is important to honour and celebrate this progress.   Yet the persistent scourge of gender-based violence in one of its insidious forms, shows that progress is both hard won, and fragile.   At its simplest, violence against women and girls is an egregious expression of power domination and patriarchy indeed. It is a blunt roadblock to gender equality and the ultimate benefits that this can bring everyone, including greater development and peace.   Gender-based violence persists because of pervasive cultures of toxic masculinity and misogyny. It is not specific to cultures, or regions, or religions. It is widespread, fuelled by centuries-old mindsets and practices that are still dangerously prevalent, almost everywhere.   Any form of gender-based violence is a form of overt control over women and girls. To perpetuate their subordination. To stereotype, degrade, coerce, and humiliate. To deny them freedom, and strip them of agency to make decisions.   Today, regardless of income or background, all women and girls live with the threat of gender-based violence. Almost one in three women have been subjected to some form of it at least once in their life, be that physical, sexual, psychological or economic.   One in three. If one in three men globally were subject to such devastating and pervasive harm, we would be convening an emergency summit.   Economic violence against women and girls is one of the forms of gender-based violence that even today too often goes unseen, and unregulated. But while it may not manifest in bruises and wounds, it can be just as harmful as physical violence, trapping women and girls in cycles of denigration and inequality.   Economic control. Economic sabotage. Economic exploitation. These are the three forms of economic violence playing out all around the world.   Restricting a woman’s access to money and assets. Tracking her spending. Ensuring she cannot open a bank account, or make financial decisions. Preventing her from seeking employment, or going to school. Taking her wages, or her pension. Accruing debt under her name.   In all its forms, economic violence is facilitated by archaic gender norms that consider men the financial decision makers. In all its forms, women are stifled, and blocked from living a life of autonomy.   We know that economic violence most commonly occurs in the home, and often interconnects with physical or sexual violence. But it can also be enabled, even perpetrated by the State through discriminatory legal frameworks which restrict women’s access to credit, employment, social protection, or property and land rights.   The world is failing to deliver on the promise of gender equality. Failing to put in place the measures needed to ensure half of humanity enjoy their fundamental rights and freedoms.   The numbers paint a startling picture. Some 3.9 billion women worldwide face legal barriers affecting their economic participation. Women earn just 77 cents for every dollar paid to men. Ninety-two countries lack provisions mandating equal pay for work of equal value. The wealth gap between women and men globally stands at a staggering 100 trillion USD.   Women’s equality lies at the core of all human rights, of human dignity and of our collective future.   To put a stop to economic violence, and proactively to ensure economic equity, we need a complete overhaul of discriminatory laws and practices. Gender equality needs to be positively fostered through laws governing all areas of life – economic, public and political. And we need policy measures to ensure that these laws are actually applied in practice.   Policy measures that protect and empower women’s economic, social and cultural rights. Access to decent work, including equal pay for work of equal value. Quality education that promotes human rights, gender equality and respect. The full realization of sexual and reproductive health and rights. Equal property ownership. Equal access to and control over financial resources. Shared childcare responsibilities and adequate childcare options. And above all, choice and opportunity to define one’s own life.   Where economic violence occurs, we must make stronger efforts to ensure survivors can seek justice and remedy. We need better complaint mechanisms. Better economic and social support systems. Better and more widely available assistance. And, importantly, perpetrators must be brought to justice.   Violence against women and girls – in all its forms – is abhorrent and inexcusable. It prevents their full and equal participation in society, suffocating their potential, and stealing choice and opportunity. We must take tangible actions to put a stop to it.   Nada Al-Nashif, United Nations Deputy High Commissioner for Human Rights, said global inequality and poverty were growing. Around 4.8 billion people, more likely to be women, were poorer than they were pre-COVID19 pandemic. Currently, more than 10 per cent of women globally were trapped in a cycle of extreme poverty, and as many as 342 million women (8 per cent) would still be living in extreme poverty by 2030. Current economic, legal and policy frameworks hindered the achievement of gender equality.   The existence of gender discriminatory laws and practices had a severe impact on women’s and girls’ enjoyment of economic rights, including the right to work and the right to social protection. A study showed that in 102 countries, women’s rights to inherit their husband’s property were denied under customary, religious, or traditional laws and practices. Even when laws granted women equal economic rights as men, these were often not implemented.   Women and girls were still perceived as the primary caregivers, meaning globally on average, they spent 2.4 hours a day more on such work than men. The lack of the recognition and the unequal distribution of care and support work deprived women and girls of equal opportunities to education, work, and participation in public life.   Furthermore, unsustainable and unprecedented levels of global public debt, combined with conditionalities of foreign financial assistance, were constraining the fiscal space of States and leading to drastic cuts in public services and denials of economic, social and cultural rights. Women would likely disproportionately face the brunt of such cuts, as they were over-represented in the public services’ workforce.   It was time to re-evaluate the concepts of unlimited economic growth, based on deeply embedded gender and other inequalities within and across countries, unsustainable exploitation of the environment, and the disregard for States’ obligations to realise economic, social, and cultural rights. There needed to be an economic paradigm shift towards a human rights economy which dismantled structural barriers and prioritised investments in human rights.   Hyshyama Hamin, Campaign Manager of the Global Campaign for Equality in Family Law, said no country worldwide had achieved full legal equality between women and men, according to the World Bank.   Inequality often started in the family. Women and girls globally were affected by discriminatory family laws and practices, which consequently had multiple intersecting impacts in all other areas of their lives. Inequality in family law limited women’s and girls’ right to education, employment, economic independence, and full participation in society.   It further increased their risk of facing gender-based violence and harmful traditional practices, such as child and forced marriage. The Global Campaign had noted from multiple contexts that unequal family laws and practices impacted the financial rights of women.   According to the World Bank, Women, Business and the Law 2024 report, of 190 economies, 76 countries restricted women's property rights; 19 countries had laws that allowed husbands to legally prevent their wives from working; 43 countries did not grant widows the same inheritance rights as widowers, and 41 countries prevented daughters from inheriting the same proportion of assets as sons. Women performed 2.5 times more unpaid care work than men, which was largely invisible and unaccounted for in national economies.   The positive impacts of equal family laws and practices on women’s economic rights were far-reaching. Accelerated progress toward gender equality could result in huge economic gains for a country.   To accelerate progress, the international community needed to prioritise and promote egalitarian family laws and practices; and all States needed to ensure their family laws and practices were aligned with article 16 of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women. All actors needed to support family law reform as a priority.   Emanuela Pozzan, Senior Gender Specialist at the International Labour Organization, said care needed to be part of a just transition. The recently concluded International Labour Conference in Geneva adopted a resolution which focused on decent work and the care economy, and affirmed that care work was fundamental to human, social, economic and environmental well-being, as well as to sustainable development. This care work, paid and unpaid, was essential to all other work.   For the first time, the international community shared a common understanding of the care economy and acknowledged that a well-functioning and robust care economy was critical for building resilience to crises, and for achieving gender equality and inclusion while addressing other inequalities.   The current social organization of care placed a disproportionate share of unpaid care work on women, which hindered women’s economic inclusion and effective labour market participation, widening gender gaps in the world of work, and leaving many without adequate access to social protection.   The distribution of unpaid care work was highly feminised. Women performed 76.2 per cent of the total amount of unpaid care work: 16 billion hours per day – 3.2 times more than men. While such care could be rewarding, its excessive intensity and arduousness could undermine the economic opportunities, well-being, and enjoyment of rights for unpaid care providers.   Over 600 million women remained outside the labour force because of family responsibilities. Over 380 million care workers, two thirds of whom were women, made up the global paid care workforce, where they were less well paid and less protected.   Recent years had brought a worldwide improvement in maternity protection policies, leave and care services, thanks to social dialogue. However, the existing challenges and gaps in care leave policies and services could not be ignored. The resolution was clear: action needed to be taken. Investing in the care economy was an added value for all countries, societies and people.   Savitri Bisnath, Senior Director of Global Policy, the Institute on Race, Power and Political Economy at The New School, said that the role of the economy was in part to facilitate human flourishing. The material realities of women and girls were linked to many sectors and policies: from health care, education, employment, sovereign debt burdens, taxation, and climate change.   Economic policies could help ensure that the root causes of, and structural barriers to, poverty and inequalities experienced by women and girls were intentionally addressed and redressed for equitable and inclusive economies and societies.   There was consensus that the current economic model was failing to deliver economic prosperity for all. For example, it was common knowledge that women were often paid less than men for the same work and that within countries women were also discriminated against based on race, age and geographic location.   The United Nations Secretary-General had pointed to the many challenges facing the world community, including geopolitical and economic fragmentation with growing inequalities mostly affecting women and girls, the cost-of-living crisis, and the poorest countries on debt row facing insolvency and default, all of which led down the path of deepening instability.   There was an urgent need for reform of the global debt architecture. The ideal of free human beings enjoying freedom from fear and want could only be achieved if conditions were created whereby everyone could enjoy their economic, social and cultural rights, as well as their civil and political rights.   Economic policies needed to be aligned with human rights and environmental justice goals. An economy grounded in human rights principles and standards would facilitate transparency and accountability, as well as space for social dialogue, scrutiny and participation. It was essential for increasing trust, cohesion and inclusion within societies.   http://www.ungeneva.org/en/news-media/meeting-summary/2024/06/le-conseil-des-droits-de-lhomme-se-penche-sur-le-probleme-de-la http://www.ungeneva.org/en/news-media/meeting-summary/2024/06/le-conseil-des-droits-de-lhomme-entend-une-mise-en-garde-contre http://www.ohchr.org/en/statements-and-speeches/2024/06/high-commissioner-economic-violence-against-women-gender-based http://news.un.org/en/story/2024/06/1151616 http://www.ohchr.org/en/special-procedures/wg-women-and-girls Visit the related web page
