The UN Platform for Action Committee (UNPAC) in Manitoba, Canada was established in 1995 after the UN Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing to advocate for the implementation of the Platform for Action born out of Beijing as well as other United Nations agreements which advance women’s equality.



UNPAC grew out of the 1995 United Nations Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing.



Forty five Manitoba women went to Beijing for the Conference participating in both the UN conference and the parallel NGO Conference. They returned to Manitoba with a commitment to see the recommendations in the Platform for Action implemented.



UNPAC supports the objectives of the Platform for Action by working through community action and with other organizations, locally and globally, for equality, development, and peace.
