The UN General Assembly's Third Committee has adopted a draft resolution on preventing violence against women, stating that "access to safe abortion" is to be part of "the human rights of all women." There is no doubt that a powerful lobby at the UN is pushing for the comprehensive inclusion of abortion in the human rights system - against the majority of countries in the world! Characteristically, abortion is combined with extreme ideology in the draft. In just 14 pages of the resolution, the word "gender" appears as many as 80 times.

· The UN General Assembly's Third Committee - the largest UN body responsible for addressing human rights issues - has approved a draft resolution on the elimination of all forms of violence against women and girls, "gender stereotypes" and "negative social norms."

· The draft will now be submitted to the United Nations General Assembly for final adoption.

· The European Commission has released a draft regulation aimed at regulating the mutual recognition of parenthood by EU member states.

· The issue primarily concerns same-sex couples, to whom some countries grant the right to adoption. In countries where such adoption is not possible, their parentage may be questioned.

- Representatives of the Ordo Iuris Institute met in Prague with European and American experts and delegations of other NGOs to discuss current challenges to the defense of human life and the family.

· The Human Rights Council Forum on Human Rights, Democracy and the Rule of Law took place at UN headquarters in Geneva.

· The event was attended by representatives of states and specialized UN agencies, academics and NGOs.

· This year's Forum was dedicated to discussing ways to strengthen democracy and the rule of law in a post-pandemic perspective.

· The European Parliament has finally approved a new directive introducing "gender equality" on the boards of listed companies.
