Subj: RE: please sign on letter or send letter to President of the  GA



Hi  all, 
I just want to  underscore the importance of Gea’s request for other regional 
focal points and  groups to join in signing the proposed letter to the 
General Assembly  President.  Government representatives are returning now to New 
York and there are  only a few weeks left in this session of the General 
Assembly.  We need  the President of the General Assembly, who is from Macedonia, to  
hear from women around the world how important it is to move the GEA process  
forward in this session. 
Thanks very  much.  June

Subject: please sign on letter or send  letter to President of the GA
 
Dear  all,
 

 
Thank you for sharing  your thoughts about the options and a great thanks as 
well to  our lobbyists in New  York, trying to bring our comments together  
and co-develop with all of us our global  strategy. 
 
In addition to  advising/lobbying governments in what options to take, we 
have heard from  different sources that it is important to also lobby the 
President of the  General and encourage him to take more leadership in the process by 
 proposing a clear process for the next GA in which they can discuss GEAR  
further. Within the European Working Group we have prepared  a letter to ask him 
that. We think the letter will have the most  impact if as many organisations 
as possible send/fax/email this to him. Or if  not possible, sign on to the 
letter we are going to  send.
 

 
So my request  is: can you send the attached  letter -adapted in the way you 
like- on to the president of the General  Assembly? Or if not, can you sign on 
this  letter we are planning to send on Thursday morning 28 of August GMT  
time? You can drop me an email before  Thursdaymorning 10 AM.
 

 
This letter  encourages the president to take leadership and propose a  good 
process/resolution (stand alone or within a general one, that does  not 
matter) that will ensure a process whereby the GEA options are concretely  further 
discussed in a timeline that is set out in the next GA.

I thank  you for your consideration in  advance. 
 

 
best  wishes!
