The Generation Equality Forum took place in Paris from 30 June – 2 July 2021, the 2nd leg after Mexico City in March earlier this year.
The Forum launched a 5-year action journey to achieve irreversible progress towards gender equality, founded on a series of concrete, ambitious and transformative actions, including $40 Billion in financial commitments, announced by UN Women Executive Director, Africa's very own Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka.
Charlotte Lobe, South Africa's COO of the Department of International Relations and Co-Operation, joined us on the final day of the historical event, to give us insight into:
PABWA has endorsed the commitments made by South Africa and Kenya, by putting forward our commitments highlighting specific programs and initiatives that are already in progress - making OUR commitments tangible, and therefore contributing to the goals of the commitments made.
Our challenge to other organisations: show us your commitments!
