Yet today we are seeing increa sed backsliding on women’s rights and gender-based violence\, in particu lar against women in decision-making. What are the key entry-points to acc elerating women’s meaningful and safe participation in political and pub lic life? The UCLG-Women Facility will take a whole-of-society and whole-o f-network approach\, collectively joining efforts to tackle the old\, new and systemic challenges of inequality and discrimination\, with women’s and feminist leadership as an essential lever for change.💬 Interpretati on : English\, French\, Spanish\, Chinese\n\nRead more about this meeting /conferences/AnnualRetreat2024/f/1375/meetings/20 67 GEO:0.0;0.0 LOCATION:Plaça d'Espanya\, 8\, 08014 Barcelona SUMMARY:UCLG-Women Facility URL;VALUE=URI:/conferences/AnnualRetreat2024/f/137 5/meetings/2067 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
