Delivering solutions for girls and women Conference: Washington D.C.

Delivering solutions for girls and women Conference: Washington D.C.

Date: June 7-9, 2010.

The conference plans to focus on political, economic, social/cultural, and technological solutions.

This global meeting will expand on Women Deliver’s hallmark of exclusivity, reaching out to new partners and new communities.

With all these partners in one room, the aim is to further prove that maternal and reproductive health is a global priority.

Women Deliver 2010 will move the dialogue to the global arena with two strong messages:

1. The MDGs will not be achieved without investing in women.
2. There is just enough time, if the world commits funding now, to achieve MDG5 – additional US$10 billion annually by 2010 and US$20 billion by 2015.

For further information, please visit Women Deliver.

International Women’s Development Agency (IWDA) is committed to collaborating with project partners and stakeholders to promote and support dialogue in relation to women, gender and development. As part of our ongoing strategy to advocate for best practice in the sector, we are pleased to bring you E-Gender – a mechanism for Australian and international readers to share information on their gender and development work, both nationally and internationally, as well as sharing international resources and items of interest.

Thank you for your feedback to date, and we encourage your ongoing input in this initiative. IWDA is keen to feature information about resources, events and opportunities in Australia and invites you to contribute. Please send information to be included to egender-items@iwda.org.au
