Gender Equality & Women’s Empowerment (GEWE) Working Group is committed to holistically examining and addressing the multifaceted dimensions of inequalities and disadvantages experienced by the genders and those with physical and/or mental disabilities (regardless of gender). In doing so, the GEWE Working Group intends to reinforce an approach to equality and development through an understanding that mutual respect and compassion are to be at the core of global governance for societies and the planet to flourish sustainably. Through this lens, the GEWE Working Group will deliberate on access to education, healthcare, financial and environmental resources, decent work, infrastructure, and decision-making; systemic issues such as discrimination based on gender or ability, gender-based violence, lack of representation, and economic disparities. Themes such as women’s role in the environment, men’s positive involvement in the gender equality process, sensitisation, and awareness towards gender  will be all-encompassing in given priority areas. Furthermore, plausible policy pathways, promising practices, and institutional mechanisms will be highlighted to enhance capacities and resources and mainstream equity and inclusion across sectors.
