In preparation for the fifty-fifth session of the Commission on the Status of Women, the Division for the Advancement of Women is organizing an online discussion on the linkages between women’s and girls' access to and participation in formal and non-formal education and training, and their equal access to full employment and decent work. The discussion will contribute to the findings and recommendations presented to the Commission on the Status of Women.

A podcast featuring experts discussing the theme will launch the online discussion. It will be available by clicking  here and on UN Radio from 7 July at 10 a.m. (New York time).
