Eszter Schittl and the CitizenGO team achieved significant results at the 65th session of the UN Commission on the Status of Women.
During the negotiations, it was possible to stop part of the pro-abortion content of the original draft document and to supplement the material with important, family-friendly points.
Family advocates had a more difficult time this year, since the US administration had already strengthened the anti-life side. The states participating in the Geneva Consensus Declaration, led by Brazil, and the African countries, who united their forces, were able to prevent the adoption of the most radical anti-life and anti-family language and were able to supplement the declaration with important missing family-friendly points.
We can also say that the CitizenGO team also contributed to the results as part of pro-life and pro-family social pressure.
More than two hundred thousand people sent messages to the delegates through the organization's petition.
The CitizenGO bus drove around the UN building in New York with the message "Abortion is not health" during the conference, drawing the attention of decision-makers and the public to the issue.
An advertisement with the same message was published in the New York press, and the signatures were sent to the delegates of the various states.
They directly lobbied some delegates, encouraging them to take action against anti-life and anti-family efforts worldwide.
In summary, the anti-life delegations left the conference disappointed as they met opposition from Brazil, the Holy See, African groups and many citizens like CitizenGO: well-intentioned and sane people who see that abortion is not the cause of women's problems. , or various LGBTQ endeavors can help.
