We recognize that empowering women entails them to have command over resources and adequate leadership capability for efficient management of those resources. Therefore, we stress on the economic needs of women, and necessity of their engagement internationally in all levels and foons of decision making process. While the former could be achieved through ensuring their access to and participation in income generating and entrepreneurial activities such as micro-credit, education, vocational training, public health; the latter could be ensured through recruitment of women particularly in senior level positions of the UN including in the posts of ASGs, USGs and SRSGs. For clearer understanding of the needs of southern women, we have to make sure that women from global south get due recognition while considering such recruitment. For proper coordination with field, fair representation of TCC/PCCs must be ensured as decided previously in the General Assembly and C34 of the United Nations.
