Governments reach a powerful global agreement to strengthen access to justice for all women and girls
Reported byUN Women ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
CSW70 Agreed Conclusions adopted March 9, 2026 with specific provisions: formal recognition of community justice workers and paralegals in legal frameworks; new commitments on digital justice and AI governance; calls for repeal of discriminatory laws
Agreement is negotiated outcome with policy recommendations rather than binding enforcement mechanism; adopted by recorded vote rather than consensus (37 favor, 1 against, 6 abstentions) reflecting contested political terrain; implementation dependent on voluntary member state action
