CEDAW
Committee
The CEDAW Committee
is the UN body that monitors the implementation of the CEDAW Convention.
It comprises 23 experts who represent the range of fields of competence
covered by the CEDAW Convention, as well as equitable geographical
distribution and principle legal systems. States parties submit
initial and periodic reports for the CEDAW Committee to review.
These reports should indicate the legal, administrative and programmatic
measures they have adopted to give effect to the provisions of the
CEDAW Convention. This review takes place in sessions normally conducted
twice a year, once in January and the other in June.
