Through her work there and as founding member and later president of the Women in the Methodist Church in the Caribbean and the Americas, she became interested in ways to empower women through social outreach programs.[6] In 1985, Bailey was part of the Jamaican delegation to the Third World Conference on Women in Nairobi. She was also part of her country's delegation in 1995 for the Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing.[1] In 2000 she participated in the follow-up meeting, "Beijing + 5," which was held at the UN General Assembly in New York City.[8] Bailey served as chair of the National Gender Advisory Committee for Jamaica, working to develop policy that would promote gender equality and social justice within the country.[6] The states parties elected Bailey as a member of the CEDAW Committee to serve from January 2009 through the end of 2012. This committee monitors countries' compliance with the CEDAW Convention, which provides a series of articles aiming to end discrimination against women.[3] In a 2015 interview, Bailey recognized the complexities of reaching women's equality, naming "entrenched patriarchal ideology" as the primary factor in structural and ideological inequality.[4] RecognitionIn 2008, Bailey was awarded the CARICOM (Caribbean Community) Triennial Award for Women.[5][6] References1. ^1 2 3 {{Cite web |url=https://sta.uwi.edu/crgs/september2015/barbarabailey.asp |title=Barbara Bailey |website=Caribbean Review of Gender Studies |publisher=University of the West Indies |location=St. Augustine, Trinidad and Tobago |publication-date=2015 |access-date=9 Dec 2016}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Bailey, Barbara Evelyn}}2. ^1 {{Cite web |url=http://www.ohchr.org/Documents/HRBodies/CEDAW/CVMembers/Bailey.pdf |title=Barbara Evelyn Bailey (Jamaica) |website=United Nations Human Rights Office of the High Commissioner |publisher=United Nations |publication-date=2008}} 3. ^{{Cite web |url=http://www.mona.uwi.edu/marcom/uwinotebook/entry/3259 |title=Professor Barbara Bailey Elected Jamaica’s Representative of CEDAW Committee |year=2008 |website=University of the West Indies at Mona, Jamaica |access-date=9 Dec 2016}} 4. ^{{Cite web |url=http://www.countryreportcard.org/2015/07/interview-with-cedaw-treaty-monitor/ |title=Interview with CEDAW Treaty Monitor, Barbara Bailey |last=Alcorn |first=Caitlin |year=2015 |publisher=Country Global Citizenship Report Card |access-date=9 Dec 2016 |quote=Gender inequality is both structural and ideological and, in my opinion, the overarching factor driving gender inequalities is the entrenched patriarchal ideology that undergirds most gender equity issues.
