The speakers introduced the purpose of the task force created for gender terminology. A clear definition is needed internationally especially in law. Some terminology is not translatable to other languages. They described the concept of gender. They try to replace "sex" with "gender" identity.

We need to search for the exact term in our bulletins, web site, resolutions etc.
