63. 我仍然致力于提高妇女在本组织各部门，包括在外地特别政治任务中的代表性。截至 2018 年 6 月，在各任务中任职的国际征聘工作人员中，31.8%是妇女，与上一年相比略微减少 1%。在这些任务的当地征聘人员中，约有 16%是妇女，与上一年相比略微增加 1%。这些数字显示，需要开展更多工作。我于 2017 年 9月启动的全系统性别均等战略将是联合国努力提高各职等任职妇女人数的一项关键工作，目标是到 2028 年实现本组织的全面性别均等。
63. I remain committed to improving the representation of women throughout the Organization, including in field-based special political missions. As at June 2018, 31.8 per cent of internationally recruited staff serving in the missions were women, a slight decrease of 1 per cent over the previous year. Among locally recruited staff in those missions, about 16 per cent were women, a slight improvement of 1 per cent over the previous year. These numbers indicate that more work needs to be done. My system-wide strategy on gender parity, which I launched in September 2017, will be a critical part of United Nations efforts to improve the number of women serving at all levels, with the goal of reaching full gender parity in the Organization by 2028.
