implementation of the Millennium Development Goals as the new post-2015
development agenda is being shaped. It urges States to tackle critical
remaining challenges through a transformative and comprehensive approach
and calls for gender equality, the empowerment of women and human rights of
women and girls to be reflected as a stand-alone goal and to be integrated
through targets and indicators into all goals of any new development
framework.
44. The Commission also urges all States and all other stakeholders to
undertake comprehensive national- and regional-level reviews of the progress
made and challenges encountered in the implementation of the Beijing
Declaration and Platform for Action and the outcomes of the twenty-third
special session of the General Assembly so that the outcomes of these reviews
can effectively feed into its fifty-ninth session, to be held in 2015. The
Commission especially encourages all stakeholders to analyse current
challenges and identify opportunities for accelerating actions to achieve
gender equality, the empowerment of women and the realization of human
rights of women and girls and to undertake appropriate commemorative
activities for the twentieth anniversary of the Fourth World Conference on
Women.
