Extract:

We welcome the unanimous adoption of the resolution on System-wide Coherence by the General Assembly earlier in July, which among others has established UN Women. The creation of UN Women effectively consolidates all the existing mandates and functions relating to women and constitutes an important step in fulfilling the commitments undertaken in the Fourth World Conference on Women held in Beijing. We are confident that this agency will address the global issues o f gender equality
and women' s empowerment with great vigor.
