The announcement is due to be attended by UN secretary-general Ban Ki-moon, DC Entertainment president Diane Nelson and some “surprise guests”, the Guardian reports.

“Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world,” the UN notes.
