Dr. Avnish Jolly, 15th November, 2008 : Registration for the 2009 United Nation’s Commission on the Status of Women is now open! The 53rd Session of CSW will take place at UN Headquarters from March 2-13, 2009. The theme will be “The equal sharing of responsibilities between women and men, including caregiving in the context of HIV/AIDS.”
For this CSW, the Huairou Commission is currently working with its partners and members to develop a number of high level panels and policy discussions and a joint advocacy statement. Our program will focus on the contributions home-based caregivers in Africa and elsewhere are making in response to the HIV and AIDS pandemic. Check our website event’s page regularly for further updates.
If you are a member or partner of the Huairou Commission planning to attend CSW with your own sponsorship and need help with conference registration, or for more information,
