1995 30 Aug – 8 Sep	Some 400-500 Bahá'í women and men from more than 50 countries around the world participated in the NGO Forum on Women at the Fourth United Nations International Conference on Women held in the resort city of Huairou some 50 kilometers north of Beijing. See One Country Vol 7 Issue 2 for profiles of some of the attendees. Bahá'í perspectives on equality were also shared with both Conference and Forum participants through distribution of The Greatness Which Might Be Theirs , a collection of Bahá'í International Community statements and essays by Bahá'ís reflecting on the Agenda and Platform for Action. The booklet's title is drawn from the words of `Abdu'l-Bahá: "As long as women are prevented from attaining their highest possibility, so long will men be unable to achieve the greatness which might be theirs." Introduction: Religion as an Agent for Promoting the Advancement of Women at all Levels. Education: Educating Girls: An Investment in the Future. Health: Primary Health Care and the Empowerment of Women. Violence: Ending Violence Against Women. Economic Structures: Women in the Informal Sector in Malaysia. Power Sharing Bahá'í Law and Principle: Creating Legal and Institutional Structures for Gender Equality. Mechanisms for Advancement: UNIFEM/Bahá'í Project Raises Community Awareness. Human Rights: Protection of Women's Rights. Girl Child: The Girl Child: A Critical Concern. Appendix: The Status of Women in the Bahá'í Community. See Towards the Goal of Full Partnership: One Hundred and Fifty Years of the Advancement of Women by Ann Boyles written in anticipation of the conference. It is a survey of the Bahá’í community's efforts to understand and practice the principle of equality between men and women.
