The 44th session of CSW and the third session of the CSW acting as PrepCom for the GA Special Session were held from 28 February - 17 March 2000. Eleven days of the three-week session were allocated to the Commission acting as Preparatory Committee for the GA Special Session, "Women 2000: Gender Equality, Development and Peace for the 21st Century."  Two panel discussions were held: one during the 44th Session of the CSW, and one during the PrepCom. This was the last session where the Commission acts as the Preparatory Committee before the Special Session in June 2000.

Decision reached at the PrepCom on arrangements regarding participation of non-governmental organizations at the special session of the General Assembly: Accreditation of non-governmental organizations that neither are in consultative status with the Economic and Social Council nor were accredited to the Fourth World Conference on Women to the special session of the GA.
