In July 2010, United Nations Member States adopted the General Assembly Resolution 64/289 establishing a new United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN-Women) consolidating four separate former United Nations entities. In creating UN-Women, the international community sent the message that gender equality and women’s rights are on par with other global imperatives. With 75 offices around the world, UN-Women has unprecedented global reach.

UN-Women is a powerful advocacy voice with governments, with United Nations sister agencies, with United Nations country teams, with nongovernmental organizations, with the private sector, and with the public at large. Thanks to its close ties with women’s organizations on the ground, UN-Women understands what women believe are the most critical issues globally. As a United Nations organization, UN-Women is in a position to amplify these voices and to make heard women’s concerns, realities, and priorities.
