JOINT PROGRAMME QUICK FACTS

Total Budget $3,640,000
Main Achievements
  • Programme started less than 6 months ago. Too early to identify main achievements.

The aim of the programme is to support national efforts for gender equality and the empowerment of women, paying particular attention to improving access to employment for women.

The joint programme has identified three inter-related strategic interventions: 1) It will support the establishment of a suitable environment for fair decision-making, strengthening the capacity to improve the availability of sex-disaggregated data and studies as well as integrating gender into sectoral programmes. 2) A practical implementation will be made in the crucial area of women’s access to employment that will be improved by supporting already existing job-creation mechanisms and by developing pilot projects. 3) Public information on gender issues and women’s socio-economic rights will be promoted through partnerships with media and Civil Society organisations.
