  "summary": "At UNGA 81, women are increasingly shaping conversations on peace, development, health, education, technology and economic empowerment, highlighting their growing role in shaping global discussions. African women, in particular, have been prominent in discussions on women, peace and security, with the African Union calling for greater participation of women in conflict prevention, mediation, peace negotiations, and the implementation of peace agreements. Health, education, and economic empowerment have also featured prominently, with African leaders pushing for greater investment in these areas. Technology is another emerging area, with calls for women and girls to have equal access to digital skills and opportunities as digital transformation reshapes economies and workplaces. However, the real test lies in whether women's participation translates into influence over policies, budgets, institutions, and decisions, and whether it results in measurable improvements in the lives of women and girls.",
