CEDAW - Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women

FAO is committed to promoting gender equality in its work by systematically examining and addressing the needs, priorities and experiences of both women and men throughout the development of its policies, normative standards, programmes, projects and knowledge-building activities, so that women and men benefit equally and inequality is not perpetuated. In cases where the gender equality gap is so large that women have no access to opportunities, FAO supports women-targeted interventions to accelerate the achievement of de-facto equality as a concrete goal for women.

FAO supports and uses CEDAW to shape its national and Organization-wide policies, strategies and programmes for agriculture and rural development at the country level in ways that take into full consideration the manifold challenges faced by rural women.
