The UN Internet Gateway on the Advancement and Empowerment of Women
WomenWatch is a gateway to the information and resources on the promotion of gender equality throughout the United Nations system, including the United Nations Secretariat, regional commissions, funds, programmes, specialized agencies. It is a joint United Nations project which was created in March 1997 to provide internet space for global gender equality issues and to support implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action. Since 1997 the intergovernmental mandate has expanded, for example through the outcome document of the Twenty-third special session of the General Assembly in June 2000 and Security Council resolution 1325 of October 2000.
The website also now provides information on the outcomes of, as well as efforts to incorporate gender perspectives into, follow-up to global conferences, such as the International Conference on Financing for Development, the World Summit on Ageing, the Children's Summit and the World Summit on Sustainable Development.
