"[W]hile sitting through events, debates and discussions in New York [at the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) meeting], my recurring thought was why, in 2013, are we still arguing over whether women should have ownership of their own bodies?" Liz Ford, deputy editor of the Guardian's global development website, asks in the newspaper's "Poverty Matters Blog." "The mention of sexual and reproductive health and rights in the draft CSW agreement this year has become a major source of contention among negotiators -- much like it did at the Rio+20 summit last year," she writes, noting objections to the language from Pakistan, Iran, Malta and the Holy See, which holds permanent observer status at the U.N.
