Event Date:
June 7, 2010 (All day) - June 9, 2010 (All day) “Women are at the economic heart of the developing world. And to do all this work, they need to be healthy.”
Women Deliver 2010, a global conference to be held in Washington DC on June 7-9, will focus on the theme: Delivering solutions for girls and women. The conference will further prove that maternal and reproductive health needs to be a global priority, and it will move the dialogue to the global arena with two strong messages:
- The MDGs will not be achieved without investing in women.
- There is just enough time, if the world commits funding now, to achieve MDG5 — additional US$10 billion annually by 2010 and US$20 billion by 2015.
