The Pacific Platform for Action (PPA) on Gender Equality and Women's Human Rights is a significant regional initiative endorsed by the Ministers for Women in the Pacific. It originated from the Fourth World Conference on Women held in Beijing in 1995. It formed the basis of the Pacific region’s contribution to global commitments.
The PPA encompasses 13 critical areas of concern related to health, education, economic empowerment, legal rights, shared decision-making, environment, culture, violence, peace, poverty, and indigenous people’s rights.
The PPA focuses on four strategic themes:
Mechanisms to promote the advancement of women
Women’s legal and human rights
Women’s access to services
Economic empowerment of women
The PPA serves as a comprehensive framework to guide policies, programs, and actions across the Pacific region, fostering a more equitable and inclusive society for all.
