 On August 12-15 in Mexico City, the XVI Regional Conference on Women in Latin America and the Caribbean will bring together high-level authorities from Mexico and the region along with representatives of multilateral organizations, academia and civil society, particularly from women’s and feminist organizations and movements.

The Conference – organized since 1977 by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), which serves as its Secretariat, and in coordination with the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women) since 2020 – will address “political, economic, social, cultural and environmental transformations as a means of advancing the care society and gender equality.”

During this gathering, which will be held at the Centro Cultural Universitario Tlatelolco in Mexico City, ECLAC will present the position paper The Care Society: Governance, Political Economy and Social Dialogue for a Transformation with Gender Equality, which will guide the debates among participants.
