From UN Women:
UN Women has launched a year-long campaign on gender equality today, 22 May!
It will feature fantastic content and monthly social media activities, all under the theme of “Empowering women, empowering humanity. Picture it!”
In 1995, the Beijing Platform for Action created a blueprint, a promise for gender equality. Twenty years later, progress has been made, but challenges remain. How do you picture gender equality? What action will you take to close the gap?
Join +UN Women and partners now for an all-day Tweetathon to kick off the #Beijing20 campaign!
Profiles of Empowering Women, Empowering Humanity campaign champions, including actress/activist Nicole Kidman; artist/activist Mallika Sarabhai; Orlando Ayala, Chariman of Emerging Markets at Microsoft; Senegalese singer Youssou Ndour; and cricketer Dinesh Karthik.
