Mainstreaming gender on the road to Johannesburg.During PrepCom II for the World Summit on Sustainable I Development (WSSD WSSD World Summit on Sustainable Development (UN)WSSD World Summit for Social Development WSSD Websphere Studio Site Developer WSSD Work Skills Series Manual Dexterity WSSD Weapon System Support Development ) in New York New York, state, United States New York, Middle Atlantic state of the United States. It is bordered by Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and the Atlantic Ocean (E), New Jersey and Pennsylvania (S), Lakes Erie and Ontario and the Canadian province of in February 2001, women from every region of the world gathered each morning at the women's caucus to network and strategise. The idea of a women's caucus was born at the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro Rio de Janeiro, city, Brazil Rio de Janeiro (rē`ō də zhänā`rō, Port. rē` thĭ zhənĕē`r and emerged as an avenue for all civil society actors
to participate in the proceedings. Women's advocacy at Rio resulted
in 172 references to women and the recognition of women as one of the
Major Groups in Agenda 21, the official outcomes document of the
conference.
Ten years later, women are using the women's caucus to challenge the effects of heightened globalisation and a system of economic imbalances that perpetuate poverty and environmental degradation Environmental degradation is the deterioration of the environment through depletion of resources such as air, water and soil; the destruction of ecosystems and the extinction of wildlife. in both developing and developed countries. During the WSSD in Johannesburg, women asked why the Rio commitments had not been implemented, and what could be done to ensure progress on all aspects of sustainable development Sustainable development is a socio-ecological process characterized by the fulfilment of human needs while maintaining the quality of the natural environment indefinitely. The linkage between environment and development was globally recognized in 1980, when the International Union . Responding to the Secretary General's report, the women's caucus called on the Summit to "renognise that the full range of human rights--civil, political, social, economic, cultural and environmental--with specific attention to women, are fundamental and necessary preconditions to sustainable development, and must be promoted and protected." Women also sought to create their own vision using the priorities outlined in their platform "Women's Action Agenda for a Healthy and Peaceful Planet 2015" and in the official Women's Major Group Dialogue Paper facilitated by the Women's Environment and Development Organisation (WEDO WEDO Women's Environment & Development Organization (New York, New York) ). Paramount to this vision is gender mainstreaming in all institutions, the development of viable alternative economic models for poverty eradication, greater corporate accountability and sustainable production and consumption processes. In the WSSD process, women demanded gender budget initiatives and gender balance in political decision-making through the 50/50 global campaign. Other key demands included education and training for all, particularly women and girls, political and public awareness-building on the inequitable distribution of resources, demilitarisation and redistribution of military funds and equal access and rights to land and other global public goods. They also wanted guaranteed access to micro-finance and employment for low- income women, ratification and implementation of the Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW CEDAW Convention to Eliminate All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (United Nations) CEDAW Component Explosives Damage Assessment Workbook (reference for blast effects software modeling) ) and its Optional Protocol and mechanisms for monitoring and evaluation within the United Nations (UN), particularly in those areas that impact women. Dissatisfied with the Chair's final PrepCom II report, which lacked a comprehensive gender perspective, women found ways to ensure that the implementation measures outlined by the Women's Major Group during the Multi-Stakeholder Dialogue were not forgotten during the Summit. This meant mobilising constituencies at home to keep women on national and regional agendas. During the Summit, women organised a range of activities. For example, a vibrant space For women to come together, the Women's Action Tent organised by WEDO and the Ilitha Labantu at the NGO NGO abbr. nongovernmental organization Noun 1.
