UN Women applauds the ECOSOC adoption today by consensus of the resolution on the revitalization of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW), a process that will strengthen the leading UN body in advancing gender equality and the rights and empowerment of all women and girls.
This important resolution comes at a pivotal moment, reinforcing trust in international cooperation and demonstrating that progress through unity is not only possible, but essential. As the United Nations marks its 80th anniversary and advances its reform agenda, the resolution stands as a tangible triumph for multilateralism, placing gender equality at its heart. It is also a clear expression of shared commitment to the United Nations, the implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action, and the advancement of the Pact for the Future.
UN Women commends the strengthened accountability measures introduced by the resolution. These measures will help accelerate implementation, translate commitments into measurable results, and create space for Member States to share best practices and lessons learned. The resolution also enables the Commission to convene its five-yearly review sessions in rotating locations around the world. This will bring CSW closer to the lived realities of women and girls and help bridge the gap between global commitments and local experiences.
