2023
Latin America and the Caribbean Governments increased their capacity to advance a gender transformative perspective and implement gender equality international and regional norms and frameworks at the national and subnational levels
In 2023, notable progress was achieved, with significant influence on 12 key normative, policy, peace, and humanitarian processes by civil society organizations dedicated to gender equality and women's empowerment. During CSW67, UN Women actively facilitated the substantial engagement of civil society, particularly feminist and women organizations, through support for eight side events organized by LAC Member States. These events delved into the central theme of CSW67, exploring its implications in areas such as digital inclusion, digital violence, education, indigenous women's issues, the digital gap, rural women's challenges, climate change, and multilateralism. In collaboration with the OAS’ Summit Secretariat, the Government of Panama, and the Government of Canada, UN Women played a vital role in a workshop aimed at enhancing the capacities of civil society organizations in gender equality. With 36 representatives from various LAC countries in attendance, UN Women provided substantive information on the gender equality normative framework and guided participants on designing and implementing advocacy campaigns for gender equality and women's empowerment. Additionally, UN Women supported the organization of the Second Annual Forum on Human Rights Defenders in Environmental Matters in Latin America and the Caribbean. This collaboration with ECLAC addressed the challenges faced by environmental rights defenders in the region. Notably, UN Women directly supported the substantive participation of 12 CSO representatives at the Forum and organized a regional workshop for over 50 CSO representatives, creating awareness about the Escazú Agreement and advocating for its implementation with a gender equality focus. As part of its collaboration with the Regional Conference on Women of LAC, UN Women co-organized two meetings of the Presiding Officers in 2023, facilitating a regional consultation before CSW67 and CSW68. The main achievements included the adoption of the Regional Declaration on the priority theme by Ministers and high-level authorities of national machineries for women's advancement. UN Women ensured substantive CSO representation in these intergovernmental meetings, supporting panelists and in-person participants while assisting the NGO CSW LAC in organizing impactful meetings that garnered hundreds of participants. The resulting political declarations were shared with national authorities, acknowledging the crucial work of CSOs in advancing gender equality and women's empowerment in the region.
