CSW63 - Opening of the 63rd Session of the Commission on the Status of Women.

The Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) is the principal global
intergovernmental body exclusively dedicated to the promotion of gender
equality, the rights and the empowerment of women. A functional commission of
the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), it was established by ECOSOC
resolution 11(II) of 21 June 1946.

The CSW is instrumental in promoting women’s and girls' rights, documenting the
reality of their lives throughout the world, and shaping global standards on
gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls.

In 1996, ECOSOC in resolution 1996/6 (see p. 20) expanded the Commission’s
mandate and decided that it should take a leading role in monitoring and
reviewing progress and problems in the implementation of the Beijing Declaration
and Platform for Action, and in mainstreaming a gender perspective in UN
activities.

During the Commission’s annual two-week session, representatives of UN Member
States, civil society organizations and UN entities gather at UN headquarters in
New York. They discuss progress and gaps in the implementation of the
1995 Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, the key global policy document
on gender equality, and the 23rd special session of the General Assembly held in
2000 (Beijing+5), as well as emerging issues that affect gender equality and the
empowerment of women and girls. Member States agree on further actions to
accelerate progress and promote women’s and girls' enjoyment of their rights in
political, economic, and social fields. The outcomes and recommendations of each
session are forwarded to ECOSOC for follow-up.
