- Notes
- A new DVD resource "Shall We Gather : Anglican Women Together" documents the 2005 gathering of the Anglican Communion delegates to the 49th session of the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (UNCSW) which met in New York from 28 February to 11 March 2005. "With the leadership of Anglican Women's Empowerment (AWE) and in partnership with the Office of the Anglican Observer at the United Nations and the Office of Women's Ministries of the Episcopal Church, a delegation was formed for the historic 10-year review of the [1995] Beijing Platform for Action (BPfA). Called a `resource for dialogue on a Christian response to injustice in the world', the DVD and its study guide `are intended as a vehicle for putting faith into action through the framework of the BPfA and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)' according to the guide".
