The 2010 Annual Ministerial Review (AMR) will be held during the high-level segment of the annual session of the Economic and Social Council, the last week of June 2010 at United Nations Headquarters in New York. It will focus on "Implementing the internationally agreed goals and commitments in regard to gender equality and the empowerment of women". It provides an opportunity to:

• Assess the state of implementation of the United Nations Development Agenda;
• Explore key challenges in achieving the international goals and commitments in the area of gender equality and the empowerment of women;
• Consider recommendations and proposals for action, including new initiatives.

Several preparatory activities at the national, regional and global level are planned in preparation of the 2010 AMR.
