From March 4 to 15, the UN hosts the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW), a convening of governments and civil society. The discussions in these two weeks are meant to move forward an international agenda on gender equality and the advancement of women.

Every year, CSW brings together a vibrant group of women's rights activists from across the globe. As the days progress, we will post more about these discussions and updates from CSW on this page.
