US Women Connect Internet Working Groups
In June 2000, the United Nation's General Assembly in New York met to review whether governments, international and non-governmental organizations, and the private sector have fulfilled the commitments made at the Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing, China in 1995.  In Spring  2000, US Women Connect (USWC) launched three US Internet Working Groups serving as the nation's key communication forum for discussion on how well our government, at all levels, is implementing the Platform for Action and the US Women's National Action Agenda. 

The results of these online discussions were summarized into a report submitted to the President's InterAgency Council on Women prior to the United Nation's June 2000 Session in New York on Beijing+5.
