Women’s rights activists and women’s organisations were invited for a consultation to provide inputs to the national parallel report of the Beijing + 25. At the consultation specific areas were identified from the guided questionnaire provided by the NGO CSW in New York.

The NGO parallel reports will be submitted to UN Women and fed into the Secretary Generals report.

As the momentum around Beijing + 25 is building up at both local and regional levels, information provided in the parallel reports can be shared among other organizations within South Asia for a comparative picture on the effectiveness of governments commitments in relation to the BPFA as well as the roll out of the SDGs.
