Over 230 civil society organisations, including human rights defenders and grassroots activists from Asia and the Pacific, representing large groups of women in their own countries are in Bangkok this week for a regional civil society forum on women’s human
rights. </span></p>

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">The Beijing+25 Regional CSO Forum is a space to celebrate achievements and identify regressions on women’s empowerment, as well as to facilitate intersectional and intergenerational dialogue and solidarity between the diverse
constituencies represented. “This is an inclusive, feminist space where diverse voices of women from across Asia and the Pacific are heard, acknowledged, and validated,” said representatives from the Beijing+25 Civil Society Steering Committee for Asia and
the Pacific. </span></p>

These wins would have not been possible without an organised feminist, women’s movement,” said Nalini Singh from Fiji Women’s Rights Movement, Fiji. </span></p>

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">However, lack of implementation and accountability were underlined as systemic barriers to the Beijing commitments, and patriarchal authoritarian governments’s increasing attacks on environmental, women human rights defenders.
“Neoliberal rules, mostly in the legally binding forms such as WTO rules (which preceded the Beijing commitments) or IMF’s structural adjustment programmes/loans (which preceded CEDAW), have been consolidated, and more recently brazen collusion between political
and economic powers have been increasing. It is fundamental that these structural barriers are named and concrete ways to remove such must be on the governments’ review agenda” said Misun Woo from Asia Pacific Forum on Women Law and Development (APWLD), Thailand. </span></p>

rest, sometimes none at all. Migration is a symptom of ‘mal-development’ and results from neo-liberal policies, but we have no choice but to make a living to support ourselves and those that we love. Privatisation makes it even more difficult for us to access
basic services where we live and work.”</span></p>

the opportunity to share our experiences, express solidarity and strategise for our collective struggles. We know that when women stop, the world stops!” said Saku, Centre for Human Rights and Development (CHRD), Mongolia.</span></p>
