A growing number of studies highlight that not only has progress in implementing the Beijing Platform for Action stalled, but that women바카라 사이트™s rights advocates in international fora are now fighting against regression of the rights of women and girls, due to the illiberal and conservative agendas of some particularly influential countries.

It is accompanied by another helpdesk report on data and evidence of global rollback in women and girls바카라 사이트™ rights since 2016 (Birchall, 2020).
