Why the United Nations is Important for Women

Picture
Friday, October 28
7:00 - 8:45 pm


Presented by UN Envoy Bruce Knotts


All are invited and welcome to attend this event

Bruce will discuss efforts at the United Nations to enhance the role of women, including Security Council Resolution 1325 and, subsequently, the creation of the newest UN agency, UN Women, and the UN Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women. Only seven countries have not signed this UN Convention: United States, Iran, Somalia, Sudan, and two small Pacific Island nations (Palau and Tonga).

All are invited and welcome to attend this event.

Presenter:  Bruce Knotts, Director, Unitarian Universalist United Nations Office

Bruce is offering this presentation free of charge. Donations to the Women's Center are appreciated and optional.
