On International Women's Day we recognize and honor the struggles and achievements of women and girls around the world, regardless of race, color, national or ethnic origin, religion or other beliefs. Recognizing the enormous obstacles that many women continue to face, such as social inequalities, violence and marginalization, the Office of the Commissioner for Legislation stands by women and their struggle to secure and promote their fundamental rights.
The Office of the Commissioner for Legislation dutifully coordinates, prepares and presents the national reports submitted by the Republic of Cyprus under ratified international conventions regulating women's rights and gender equality, such as the Convention on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women and the Convention on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.
