Kwe kwe:
Please see the link below to the CEDAW. This convention is now part of the UN Human Rights and the committee responsible for CEDAW works from the High Commission Office in Geneva. I encourage you to explore the website but more importantly read through the Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Discrimination against Women. This is an extremely important convention that works towards women's equality globally.
I attended a one-week training on CEDAW last week. It was excellent--interesting and informative. It also made me realize how women have been denied equality in many sectors of society.
