This Chapter shall endeavor to partner with private and public sectors, non-for-profit organizations and concerned individuals in order to raise awareness and support for UN Women. As an affiliate of the U.S. National Committee for UN Women, this Chapter shall also further the U.S. National Committee's program on behalf of UN Women.
