🌏 World leaders from every corner of the globe came together to mark the 30th anniversary of the landmark United Nations conference on women, held in Beijing in 1995. Their mission? To recommit to empowering women and girls everywhere.
The UN Secretary-General hailed the 1995 conference as "the most ambitious global political commitment on women's rights ever achieved." Yet, even with three decades of progress, officials stressed that a lot more still needs to be done. ✊
