Beijing+30 African Women with disabilities engage
MIW, DIWA, WFD and IDA join forces for an Inclusive African review of Beijing+30
In 2025, the international community will commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Fourth World Conference on Women and the endorsement of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action in 1995 - Beijing+30.
A comprehensive national review will be undertaken throughout 2024 in countries, led by Governements.
In parallel, the civil society organizations will join forces to reflect on progress and gaps in the 12 critical areas of the Beijing Platform for Action, in the last 5 years.
DIWA and MIW, lately joined by IDA (International Disability Alliance) and WFD (World Federation of the Deaf) have been engaging together to ensure the Beijing+30 review will be more inclusive than ever, opening to French and Portuguese speaking countries and paying attention to women with disabilities with intersecting identities.
We launched the "My voice from Africa" survey to collect the individual perspective of women with disabilities accross Africa in French, Portuguese, English and International Sign.
Stay tuned for more reports!
