Women Making a Difference

The titles in this section are related to the UN Fourth World Conference on Women (Beijing, 1995). Some focus on the conference itself, while others are concerned with the monitoring of governments' commitment to implement the Beijing Platform for Action. Of particular interest is IWTC's new community action guide: Women! Policy! Action!

Using the Platform for Action as a unique approach to studying English, this book features interviews with African women; English language practice exercises to revise the key vocabulary introduced; practical advice in the topic area; and expert tips for everyday use. Appendices include a summary of CEDAW; glossary; answer key; details of useful organizations.
