The First Lady of Lebanon and President of the National Commission for Lebanese Women, Neemat Aoun, arrived this Sunday in New York to take part in the work of the 69th session of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW69), which is being held at the UN headquarters from March 10 to 21, 2025.
The session, chaired by Saudi Arabia, includes a series of debates and meetings bringing together delegations from UN member states, international and regional organizations, as well as civil society players and women's rights experts.
President Joseph Aoun’s wife will deliver a national address and hold several bilateral meetings with international leaders. These discussions will focus on strengthening women's empowerment programs and promoting gender equality in line with the goals of the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda.
The 69th session coincides with the 30th anniversary of the 4th World Conference on Women, held in Beijing in 1995, which led to the adoption of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action.
