On #IWD2026, we highlight that rising military spending can undermine gender equality and reinforce harmful norms.     To build fair, peaceful societies, women must help shape how resources are allocated.     Transparent, inclusive financing is essential.

“States have a crucial opportunity to make concrete progress to advance a world free of nuclear weapons and to build a more inclusive disarmament agenda” – High Representative @INakamitsu calls for inclusive nuclear disarmament diplomacy at next month’s NPT Rev Con #IWD2026

Women’s rights are human rights. And investing in women and girls is one of the surest ways to make the world a better place Yet, progress on gender equality has been slow and uneven. It’s time to take action and deliver the equality our world so sorely needs. Women and girls are changing the world. Let’s change the world for women and girls.
