The third World Conference on Women
The third World conference to Review and Appraise the Achievements of the United Nations Decade for Women was held in Nairobi, Kenya with the aim of bringing representatives of different governments as well as 15,000 NGO representatives of NGOs together. This event is described as being “the birth of global feminism,” resulting in the founding of the UN Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM).
