Jump To Comment: 4 3 2 1The 53rd meeting of the Commission for the Status of Women (UN) is
focussing on Gender Reform Architecture:
This means quantifiable and measurable changes by National Governments against
violence (VAW) and in increasing women's Participation in decision-making.
The focus of this year's International Women's Day is on Gender and poverty.
The Western media has largely ignored the Commission for the Status of Women
incl. press releases. campaigns. and global media coverage.

5,000 women from civil society groups worldwide have committed themselves to monitoring

nor do I have a link -it was C+P ed into my mail, thus if anyone can type up and
disseminate the info let me know]
We are putting it onto http://www.indymedia.org later.
150 civil society groups from all over the world have been working decades to bring
women's rights to the forefront and bang -not one page of media coverage. This is
because the issue of enforcing change at national government level to allow for
measurable reforms in regard to the rights of women generally is not newsworthy.
Lucina Kathman Covered the Spanish language dissemination.
