Ladies and Gentlemen

UN Women commends the Commission on Population and Development (CPD) and its focus on adolescence and youth this year.

The Commission provides invaluable and timely evidence on population and development status and trends related to gender equality and the empowerment of young women and girls. CPD is a key contributor for effectively mainstreaming a gender perspective in norms, policies and programmes.
