sharing of responsibilities”
You are invited to participate in the online discussion on “Women and men:
equal sharing of responsibilities” organized by the Division for the
Advancement of Women, United Nations, which will run from 7 July to 1 August
2008.
To register, please click on the following link to fill out an online

are encouraged to register before 3 July 2008. You will receive an email with
your username and password before the start of the online discussion.
The online discussion will contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the
issue of equal sharing of responsibilities between women and men, including
caregiving in the context of HIV/AIDS, and to identify good practices and
strategies required to accelerate gender equality in this regard. The
discussion is part of the preparatory process for the 53rd session of the
Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) in 2009. It will provide background
information for an Expert Group Meeting organized by the Division for the
Advancement of Women on this theme.
