Join Equality Now, Alliance for Universal Digital Rights (AUDRi), Women Leading in AI; UN Women; the Government of Spain, and the Government of Finland for a convening on Monday, March 6, 2023, from 2:00-4:00 PM EST.

This is a workshop where women at CSW67 will come together to make recommendations to the UN Tech Envoy for how their needs should be addressed in the new Global Digital Compact (GDC). The GDC must uphold the rights of women, girls, and gender non-conforming individuals to safely access and use digital technologies free of violence.

In partnership with Generation Equality’s Action Coalition Commitment Makers and Leaders, we invite women’s and girls’ rights organizations, civil society organizations that work on human rights/digital rights, young women-led organizations, activists, and experts on violence against women and digital rights to attend.

Speakers include:

1. Amandeep Singh Gill, Envoy on Technology, United Nations
