National Commission on the Status of Women (NCSW) and UN Women join forces to culminate 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence Campaign with Mega Event. The National Commission on the Status of Women (NCSW), in collaboration with UN Women, is set to host a grand event at the Jinnah Convention Center in Islamabad on December 11, 2023, from 10 am to 10 pm, marking the conclusion of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence Campaign. This year's theme "UNiTE! Invest to Prevent Violence against Women & Girls," underscores the critical need to advance initiatives, policies, and programs that proactively address and prevent violence against women. In alignment with this goal, the event will hold a women's trade fair, providing a platform for home-based workers and various women entrepreneurs, including those from corporate, small, and medium enterprises. The women's trade fair serves as more than just an exhibition; it is a pivotal step toward fostering the economic empowerment of women. By offering a space for networking, display, and sales, the event aims to support and promote the diverse creations of women, enabling them to contribute significantly to the economic landscape. The inclusion of a women's trade fair in this event is a testament to the pivotal role women play in economic development. Economic empowerment of women is not only a matter of equality but a strategic investment in the prosperity of communities and nations. By providing women entrepreneurs with opportunities to showcase and sell their products, this event contributes to breaking down economic barriers and fostering a more inclusive and equitable society. Empowered women contribute not only to the growth of businesses but also to the overall well-being and resilience of societies. Mark your calendar for December 11, 2023, from 10 am to 10 pm, at the Convention Centre, Club Road, Islamabad. Your participation is not just an attendance; it is a commitment to supporting the economic empowerment of women and standing against gender-based violence. We look forward to your presence as, together, we make a resounding statement in favour of a more just and equal world.
