2020 Women's Empowerment Principles Forum 


Join UN Global Compact, UN Women and UN Office for Partnerships for this year’s Women’s Empowerment Principles Forum (2020 WEPs Forum). This year, 2020, is a momentous year as it marks 10 years since the establishment of the WEPs (WEPs+10).

Bringing together 200+ leaders from WEPs signatory companies, the United Nations, and other key stakeholders, the 2020 WEPs Forum and WEPs+10 celebration will provide the platform to take stock of progress made for women's rights as integral to business sustainability and profitability, to share lessons learned and replicable good practices to be scaled up amongst WEPs signatories, and also to showcase the positive trends and shifts in the gender equality landscape.

This year’s Forum will align with UN Women's new multigenerational global flagship campaign, Generation Equality, to mark the 25th anniversary of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action (BPfA), recognized as the most progressive roadmap for gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls, everywhere.
