December 2023 Webinar on Parliamentary Engagement on CEDAW

Summary

The webinar is aimed at supporting parliaments in taking action for enhanced implementation of CEDAW. It will serve to provide information on the Convention and State reporting process; facilitate peer-to-peer exchanges among MPs and their interaction with CEDAW Committee members; and identify any targeted support that might be required from the IPU.

Prior to the webinar, parliamentarians are invited to peruse the second edition of the handbook for parliamentarians on the CEDAW Convention and its Optional Protocol, which provides detailed guidance and concrete examples of parliamentary action to implement CEDAW.
