Equal is greater: Time to act for gender equality and women’s empowerment and rights

Equal is greater. Equal adds up. When actions deliver for women and girls, everyone benefits. The world has a plan to achieve gender equality and the rights and empowerment of women and girls. That plan is the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action (BPfA). As the BPfA turns 30, UN Women launches efforts to mobilize action and investment to achieve gender equality, rights, and empowerment of all women and girls. Through six priority areas of action, and by putting youth at the centre of these efforts, equal is achievable.

Find out in this brochure how everyone can take action to achieve an equal world where all voices are heard, all rights are respected, and all people enjoy equal opportunity.
