UNDP Somalia Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment Strategy (2011 – 2015)

February 23, 2015

In 2013, the Country Office (CO)’s Gender Equality Strategy (the Gender Strategy) which is aligned to the country programme document (CPD) (2011 – 2015) entered its second year of implementation1 and saw an overall improvement in the implementation of the CPD from a gender perspective.

The Gender Strategy adopts a four-pronged approach to meet its overall objective of ‘ensuring that gender equality and equity and women’s rights are well respected, women’s positions are improved and women’s active participation is ensured throughout UNDP’s programmes in Somalia through a gender focused
approach that will include strengthening of the CO’s work on gender, improving coordination, data gathering and analysis and capacity development.
