Africa regional review of twenty-five years of implementation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action (BPfA): generation equality

Abstract

ECA in collaboration with UN Women and AUC is conducting the fifth review of the implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action (BPfA) on the African continent. The objective is to assess the progress made and challenges encountered in the implementation of the BPfA as well as serving as an opportunity for awareness raising and consultation at the national level with a broad range of stakeholders within and outside government. The review will inform the 2020 Global report on Beijing Plus 25 so that the Africa perspective is captured. In collaboration with UN Women, ECA is facilitating the Africa region’s review of twenty-five years of the implementation of the BPFA. The Review is based on a Guiding Note produced by UN Women in partnership with all the five UN regional commissions including ECA.
