\"6085\"Agenda 21: Chapter 24 \u2013 Global action for women towards sustainable and equitable development<\/strong><\/h4>\n

24.1. The international community has endorsed several plans of action and conventions for the full, equal and beneficial integration of women in all development activities, in particular the Nairobi Forward-looking Strategies for the Advancement of Women<\/a>, which emphasize women’s participation in national and international ecosystem management and control of environment degradation. Several conventions, including the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women <\/a>(General Assembly resolution 34\/180, annex) and conventions of ILO and UNESCO have also been adopted to end gender-based discrimination and ensure women access to land and other resources, education and safe and equal employment. Also relevant are the 1990 World Declaration on the Survival, Protection and Development of Children<\/a> and the Plan of Action for implementing the Declaration (A\/45\/625, annex). Effective implementation of these programmes will depend on the active involvement of women in economic and political decision-making and will be critical to the successful implementation of Agenda 21.<\/p>\n
