Role of NGOs: Providing Alternative Information to the Committee
The CEDAW Committee welcomes the country-specific NGOs shadow/alternative reports providing additional information on the implementation of the Convention in the country concerned.
Many Shadow reports submitted to CEDAW Committee since July 2004 can be found at the website of IWRAW Asia Pacific: http://www.iwraw-ap.org/resources/shadow_reports.htm
In addition, NGOs can attend the review of their governments and make oral interventions as well as meet with Committee members to inform them about the most critical issues relating to women’s rights in your country.
This toolkit was prepared by KARAT Coalition thanks to the support of OXFAM Novib.
KARAT wishes to thank our partner IWRAW Asia Pacific for sharing with
us its expertise and materials. Special thanks go to Lisa Pusey for her input
and comments as well as to Karolina Siudak for her contribution to the text.
