Beijing +30

Beijing +30 refers to a milestone in the context of global women’s rights and gender equality, marking the 30th anniversary of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action. This foundational document was adopted at the 1995 United Nations Fourth World Conference on Women, outlining a comprehensive policy agenda for advancing women’s rights and addressing issues such as violence against women, economic empowerment, education, and health. The Beijing +30 initiative emphasizes the need to evaluate progress made since 1995, address ongoing challenges, and accelerate efforts towards achieving the goals set in the original declaration. It aims to reinvigorate commitments by governments, civil society, and international organizations to promote gender equality and empower all women and girls worldwide.
