Women and Sustainable Development
Can “sustainable development” be fully realized without the participation of women, respect for inclusion, parity and non-discrimination? We will address the different aspects of this subject as well as the challenges it raises using diversified and multidimensional approaches. We will examine, mainly, the social responsibility of companies and the effectiveness of their commitment in this field, but also the responsibility of states, the main actors in achieving sustainable development objectives, in establishing and implementing the mechanisms required in this regard at national and international level. We will also discuss the contribution of lawyers, bars and associations of lawyers as well as the UIA to this process.
