| Background
The
EGM was in preparation for the High-level Intergovernmental
Meeting, in September 2004, to review the implementation
of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action
(BPFA) adopted at the Fourth World Conference on Women
(Beijing, 1995), and the outcome of the twenty-third
special session of the General Assembly (2000) for
the UNESCAP region. Experts from the region were invited
to deliberate on various emerging aspects of gender
and development issues most relevant to the region
as well as identify new approaches to address persistent
concerns and emerging challenges vis-à-vis
the BPFA and the Outcome Document of the Global Review
of the BPFA.
