| |  | | | Manifesto | Quarterlette | On a chilly January night, a few years ago, two 26-year old gals found themselves cozied up in a warm wine bar feeling a bit lost. Lost in their relationships. Lost in their careers. Lost in the chaos of New York City, trying to figure out what they wanted out of their lives and who they wanted to be….oh, and how to get there, of course.
Over drinks that night just north of Union Square, said gals – in the midst of venting about their own lives – came to the realization that there was no real resource to help them navigate these tricky post-college years which they were experiencing. Sure, they could go see a therapist. But who could afford that? Or they could go read a book written by someone much older lecturing them on what to do. But who wants to be lectured…and by someone who is already in their next life phase?
What they really wanted was a little support (reassurance that things would turn out ok…or hugs…both would work), guidance (insight from women who had highly coveted knowledge) and pure, simple inspiration (amazing stories of courage, love, travels, etc.) from those who would understand the most: women just like them.

| |  | | | Our Story So Far | She Takes on The World | | I carried this dream for quite a few years, until middle school teachers and guidance counselors advised me that this was out of the question. They encouraged me to find a “real job” that I might enjoy doing. Through a software program that helps students figure out what job they could potentially do based on their passions, I was told I would make a good lawyer. The second option it gave me was being a circus performer. I have no idea where that one came from. Quite frankly, I think this kind of software should be banned in schools. [Side note: Today I am an entrepreneur and an author and a teacher and a speaker and a soon-to-be astronaut once I book my ticket into space with Virgin Galactic.] [More] | | |

| |  | | | About UN Women | UN Women – Headquarters | In July 2010, the United Nations General Assembly created UN Women, the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women. In doing so, UN Member States took an historic step in accelerating the Organization’s goals on gender equality and the empowerment of women. The creation of UN Women came about as part of the UN reform agenda, bringing together resources and mandates for greater impact. It merges and builds on the important work of four previously distinct parts of the UN system, which focused exclusively on gender equality and women’s empowerment:
Division for the Advancement of Women (DAW)
International Research and Training Institute for the Advancement of Women (INSTRAW)
Office of the Special Adviser on Gender Issues and Advancement of Women (OSAGI)
United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM)
The main roles of UN Women are:
To support inter-governmental bodies, such as the Commission on the Status of Women, in their formulation of policies, global standards and norms.
To help Member States to implement these standards, standing ready to provide suitable technical and financial support to those countries that request it, and to forge effective partnerships with civil society.
To lead and coordinate the UN system’s work on gender equality as well as promote accountability, including through regular monitoring of system-wide progress.
Meeting the Needs of the World’s Women
Over many decades, the UN has made significant progress in advancing gender equality, including through landmark agreements such as the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW). Gender equality is not only a basic human right, but its achievement has enormous socio-economic ramifications. Empowering women fuels thriving economies, spurring productivity and growth. Yet gender inequalities remain deeply entrenched in every society. Women lack access to decent work and face occupational segregation and gender wage gaps. They are too often denied access to basic education and health care. Women in all parts of the world suffer violence and discrimination. They are under-represented in political and economic decision-making processes. For many years, the UN has faced serious challenges in its efforts to promote gender equality globally, including inadequate funding and no single recognized driver to direct UN activities on gender equality issues. UN Women was created to address such challenges. It will be a dynamic and strong champion for women and girls, providing them with a powerful voice at the global, regional and local levels. Grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the UN Charter, UN Women, among other issues, works for the:
elimination of discrimination against women and girls;
empowerment of women; and
achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security.
