Videos on YouTube

Recently, UN Women opened a video channel on YouTube that houses tools and training videos that are relevant to those working to advance womens rights (www.youtube.com/unwomen). A five-part series on the Southern Cone economic rights for women has been recently uploaded, and it focuses on the economic realities women live in and the challenges they face, particularly in Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and Chile. (www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABBbBy0aHUk&feature=relmfu). Women in these regions have less secure jobs, receive lower wages and generally work in the informal sector. This five-part series is produced by TV Brasil Internacional, with support from UN Women and Southern Cone.
