Starting off in Mexico Cityin March 2021 and culminating in Paris in June 2021, the Forum is seeking tosupport the realization of the Beijing Platform for Action by bringingtogether a wide range of actors from across different sectors, to define andmobilize a bold and ambitious agenda for how to build back better anddifferently from the COVID-19 crisis to achieve an equal future for all.Despite some progress, real change has been agonizingly slow for themajority of women and girls around the world.
