For the first time ever, the United States hosted a Geneva Consensus Declaration (GCD) event during High-level Week at
#UNGA81. We’re proud to assume the GCD Secretariat and will carry this work forward through a whole-of-government effort led by
@USDeptHHS. Established in 2020, the Geneva Consensus Declaration, led by the United States, began as a joint initiative with a few like-minded countries. The Declaration has four main objectives: to secure meaningful health and development gains for women; to protect life at all stages; to defend the family as the fundamental unit of society; and to work together across the
@UN system to realize these values.
