Videos to watch: listen to our members' and partners' perspectives

Dear partners and friends,
Couldn't be in New York for CSW62 this month? We have plenty of materials to share to catch you up from the week: watch videos of our member representatives and partners below. 

The CAP delegation at CSW was made up of 10 of our 23 member organisations (from 5 continents!). We organised two public events, a meeting with the UN Secretary General, and took the opportunity of being together to have internal working meetings.
With best wishes,
CAP International Secretariat
