Beijing +10 Reports

January 2005

Under the theme “Beijing at Ten: Achieving Gender Equality, Development and Peace”, the review and appraisal focused on implementation at the national level, review of achievements, identification of gaps and challenges, and providing an indication of areas where actions and initiatives, within the framework of the Platform for Action and the outcome of the special session (Beijing +5), were most urgent for further implementation. As the outcome of the ten-year review, delegates adopted a declaration emphasizing that the full and effective implementation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action is essential to achieving the internationally agreed development goals, including those contained in the Millennium Declaration.
