STATEMENT OF THE UN WOMEN, October, 2015.

We have seen that regional plans are effectively implemented when there is widespread consultation with civil society, when there is political will, when there are adequate financial, human and technical resources and when there is a strong framework for monitoring and evaluation. We are also encouraged by the appointment of high-level envoys, some of whom were mentioned today by speakers from various countries and regions, and we welcome the appointment of women envoys within NATO and the AU, whose collaboration we are already fully enjoying.
