Inhaltsangabe

Making Rights Real for Future Generations is a meticulously crafted workbook designed for the strategic implementation of human rights at the local level. This authoritative guide draws from the well-established recommendations of the Cities for CEDAW campaign, initiated in 2014 by the NGO Committee on the Status of Women, New York, in commemoration of Beijing + 20. Aligned with the overarching goal of the campaign to enforce the United Nations Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), this workbook serves as an indispensable tool in the pursuit of gender equality and human rights for girls and women, embracing their rich diversity. Tailored for a discerning audience, it targets government officials, civil society leaders, and dynamic youth advocates, providing them with a comprehensive resource for informed decision-making and effective advocacy.

She is the founder of Dignity Index, a methodology and a process to prevent and remedy structural discrimination and Dignidad360, an innovation lab to increase safety for women and girls in both public and private spheres.
