UN Women is the United Nations agency for women's rights, gender equality and women's empowerment. A global champion ForAllWomenAndGirls, UN Women was established to accelerate progress on meeting their needs worldwide. UN Women supports UN Member States as they set global standards for achieving gender equality, and works with governments and civil society to design laws, policies, programmes and services needed to implement these standards. It stands behind women’s equal participation in all aspects of life, focusing on five priority areas: increasing women’s leadership and participation; ending violence against women; engaging women in all aspects of peace and security processes; enhancing women’s economic empowerment; and making gender equality central to national development planning and budgeting. UN Women also coordinates and promotes the UN system’s work in advancing gender equality.

The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace generates strategic ideas and independent analysis, supports diplomacy, and trains the next generation of scholar-practitioners to help countries and institutions take on the most difficult global problems and advance peace. As a uniquely global think tank, Carnegie leverages its 170 experts throughout the world to better understand the threats and opportunities affecting global security and well-being. In addition to its offices in Washington, DC and California, Carnegie has global centers in Beirut, Berlin, Brussels, East Asia, and New Delhi. Our global presence helps root Carnegie’s analysis in deep regional expertise and on-the-ground context that provides the nuance required to take on the most challenging problems.
