SUMMARY:Action Coalition thematic session on Gender-Based Violence
DESCRIPTION:Lana Finikin, Sistren Theatre Collective, Jamaica, will speak on behalf of grassroots women at the high level session of the Action Coalition on Gender Based Violence at the Mexico City Generation Equality Forum. Sri Sofjan, Huairou Senior Advisor, will also join in the panel discussion.\nThe key guiding questions will be:\nWhat can the action coalition on GBV do to ensure a genuine focus on addressing violence against women and girls in all their  diversity? \n How should an understanding of  women’s   and girl’s diverse and intersecting experiences of violence and discrimination be taken on board as we continue to develop and to refine the action coalition blueprints?\nThe GBV Action Coalition will propose a targeted set of concrete, ambitious and immediate actions within the period of 2020-2025 to deliver tangible impact on gender equality and girls’ and women’s human rights. The session will serve as a space where members will present goals, tactics and commitments to go towards a 5 year blueprint to achieve gender equality.\nThe Generation Equality Forum is a multi-stakeholder global gathering that celebrates the power of women’s rights activism, feminist solidarity and youth leadership to and accelerate the implementation of ambitious global commitments for gender equality in the UN Decade of Action as the world builds back better from COVID-19. Over twenty-five years after the historic Fourth World Conference on Women and the adoption of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, this landmark effort will bring together actors from diverse sectors –  including Governments, civil society, youth actors, private sector, and international organizations – on equal standing to define and announce ambitious investments and policies that will accelerate progress towards gender equality.\nThe event will take place 7:00PM-9:00PM CST/9:00PM-11:00PM EST.\nRegister to attend.\n
