For the first time at the international level, equality between men and women was enshrined in the UN Charter in 1945, and it was stated that the UN Member States should ensure gender equality and create all the conditions for that. The following year, the UN Commission on the Status of Women was established. The organization worked to ensure women’s rights in a wide range of spheres of society, as well as to monitor the equality of men and women in different countries of the world. Thus, the commission sought to act on an international level.
