CSW Challenges and Opportunities
Published on March, 40 2014As a first time attendee of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW), I came in with numerous ideas and dreams of what the United Nations and the CSW would entail. Bright-eyed and eager to learn, I envisioned being a part of critical life-changing conversations about international warfare, education and poverty. I expected to be empowered by efficacious women guiding critical conversations about human rights, gender-based violence, anti-trafficking and spirituality as a tool for empowerment.
