The Africa We Want – Gaps in CAP

During the pre-CSW preparatory meeting that took place in Addis from 6-8th February 2014, FEMNET presented its position on the Common Africa Position (CAP) which was adopted during the Heads of State Summit in Addis in January. In this presentation, we identify some of the positive aspects of CAP as well as some of the gaps which we hope will be rectified as to ensure CAP reflects the ambitions, aspirations and lived realities of all Africans and advocates for a stand-alone pillar on gender equality, women’s empowerment and the realization of women’s rights.
Please see the attached documents for more information – presentation, policy brief and President Sirleaf’s Report on Post 2015 which includes the CAP as the annex.
