(By: Adeel Javed) - More than 6000 world leaders, influencers, advocates, activists, academics and journalists would assemble in Vancouver, British Columbia, to attend world’s largest conference on gender equality, rights and wellbeing of women.

The four-day conference titled ‘The Women Deliver 2019’ to be held from 3rd to 6th of June 2019 is being officially supported by Government of Canada. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is also one of the speakers at the conference.

The conference will promote world-class solutions, present new knowledge; engage a broad spectrum of voices. It will focus on gender equality, women health, education, nutrition, human rights and good governance. Around six thousand participants from over 160 countries, 2500 organizations and 500 journalists will be attending ‘Women Deliver.’

UN agencies and government representatives including ministers and parliamentarians from more than 50 countries will speak at the occasion. On site attendance is not the only way to participate in the Women Deliver 2019. More than 100,000 virtual participants would be the part of this conference through satellite and internet.

Preconference events will start from 2nd of June, while the conference will be inaugurated on 3rd of June. The event will be divided into different categories concurrently which include Plenary, concurrent, film, power stage, side events, youth zone, special events and workshops.

The Women Deliver 2019 conference will be hosted in the award-winning Vancouver Convention Centre, state of the art facility on the water front in beautiful downtown Vancouver.

A vibrant city, Vancouver is located on Canada’s west coast and is an ideal location to host an international event.

In addition to having the technical capacity to host a conference of this size, Canada is also one of the countries in the world that consistently prioritizes and invests in girl and women. These shared values make Canada an appropriate choice for the Women Deliver 2019 Conference.
