CSW68 Side Events

The programme of side events and parallel events, or activities organized outside the formal programme of the session of the Commission, provides an excellent opportunity for Member States, UN entities and NGOs to discuss themes of the Commission and other critical gender equality issues.

Side events held on UN premises

Permanent Missions, intergovernmental organizations and United Nations entities hold side events on UN premises during the CSW session. The deadline for CSW68 side event applications was 31 January 2024, and we thank all who applied for hosting a CSW68 side event.
