Resolution 37/2.
Inter-agency coordination*
The Commission on the Status of Women,
Considering the efforts being made on behalf of women by the United Nations
through its various entities,
Taking into account the need to guarantee the effectiveness of the
investment inherent in those efforts, especially in programmes of international,
regional and national cooperation for women,
Recognizing that enhanced communication, coordination and cooperation
between United Nations entities with programmes relating to women would
reinforce initiatives for cooperation among countries,
Calling attention to the desirability that United Nations entities take
advantage of the benefits of inter-agency coordination, given the growing
constraints on resources intended for women’s programmes,
Affirming the need to disseminate widely and fully among United Nations
entities a common understanding of gender-focused planning, in order to achieve
a systematic approach to their actions and proposals regarding initiatives
related to women,
