World Bank Income Classification:Low IncomeThe World Bank classifies economies for analytical purposes into four income groups: low, lower-middle, upper-middle, and high income. For this purpose it uses gross national income (GNI) per capita data in U.S. dollars, converted from local currency using the World Bank Atlas method, which is applied to smooth exchange rate fluctuations.Least Developed Country:YesSince 1971, the United Nations has recognized LDCs as a category of States that are deemed highly disadvantaged in their development process, for structural, historical and also geographical reasons. Three criteria are used: per capita income, human assets, and economic vulnerability.Gender Inequality Index:0.575GII is a composite metric of gender inequality using three dimensions: reproductive health, empowerment and the labour market. A low GII value indicates low inequality between women and men, and vice-versa.Gender Development Index:0.723GDI measures gender inequalities in achievement in three basic dimensions of human development: health, education, and command over economic resources.

Strategic Note Outcome Progress NoteShowing data of :
2022
All people in Ethiopia live in a cohesive, just, inclusive and democratic society.
The second outcome of the Strategic Note 2021-2025, which is fully aligned to the United Nations Sustainable Cooperation Framework 2020-2025, aims at promoting a cohesive, just, inclusive and democratic society in Ethiopia. Adhering to the theory of change of the Strategic Note 2021-2025, UN Women contributed to this outcome through strengthening democratic institutions, and the capabilities of rights holders to demand their rights. In 2022, UN Women focused on enhancing women’s leadership capabilities and effective participation in politics and public life; as well as women’s participation in conflict prevention, resolution, and peace building, humanitarian decision making and strengthening civil society in general and the women’s movement and organizations.
In 2022, UN Women significantly contributed to advancing women’s representation and effective participation in inclusive democratic institutions, including through support of male leaders in this process. UN Women deepened its partnerships with duty bearers at national and regional levels as well as civil society organizations and women rights organizations to promote attitude, norms and practices advancing gender equality, in general, and women’s empowerment as leaders and decision makers, in particular. UN Women continued to challenge the deep rooted beliefs against women’s leadership role in the community, in partnership with CARE Ethiopia, through a signature approach of social accountability and action community dialogues. More than 2,800 members of the community have been reached through the 96 dialogues, as a step towards transforming discriminatory gender norms around women in leadership and enabling communities to take joint action to strengthen positive practices. Male community members now demonstrate increased willingness to encourage their female relatives and partners to take part in public meetings as well as share domestic care work allowing women to have more time to spend on public activities. In advancing women’s leadership, more than 800 women leaders, drawn from the legislative and executive branches of government of Ethiopia are now empowered to harness their voice, exercise their agency as well as influence governance institutions. As a result of UN Women strategy to scaling up programming in empowering women in leadership and politics, a mentorship opportunity has been provided to 109 newly appointed women leaders in Amhara region by linking them with 109 seasoned women leaders to inspire the new women leaders with more leadership confidence. As evidenced through testimonies of women leaders, the mentorship programme has been transformational in enhancing their decision-making and management competencies, expanding their professional networks and equipping them with problem solving skills as newly appointed women leaders and support other women leaders. “ After I took the training (Transformative Leadership for Gender Equality Training), there was a noticeable change in my work, and I was promoted to from woreda to zonal level, Women, Children and Youth Affairs Department ” – confirmed one woman leader who is now a Deputy Head of the Health Department of the South Gondor Zone in Amhara Region. Furthermore, building on the unique partnership with the Office of the President (OTP) of Ethiopia, UN Women was able to avail more opportunities for increasing women’s leadership at all levels, including women with disabilities and young women.
UN Women continued to contribute to the UN’s shared effort to support the establishment of a gender and vulnerability responsive national peace architecture. The Government of Ethiopia, with the Ministry of Women and Social Affairs as the lead, has started the preparation of Ethiopia's first National Action Plan (NAP) on Women, Peace and Security (WPS) in 2022. UN Women's current Strategic Note places a strong focus on women, peace and security across the humanitarian-development-peace nexus programming and, therefore, UN Women has done strong groundwork, including advocacy, awareness raising and capacity-building of CSOs, government and media, to build a conducive environment for the development of the NAP. In 2022, UN Women made some progress in ensuring that civil society and women’s rights organizations (WROs) are now more able to meaningfully contribute and influence the policy environment and promote the Women, Peace and Security agenda at the national and local levels. Five national civil society organizations (Norwegian Church Aid, Ethiopian Mediation and Arbitration Center, Timran, Network of Ethiopian Women’s Associations and Ethiopian Women Lawyers Association) influence the process of developing a National Action Plan (NAP) on the United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR 1325) through their membership in the national technical committee on the NAP, which is led by the Ministry of Women and Social Affairs, with engagement and representation of other governmental and non-governmental stakeholders. The CSOs are formally invited and recognized members of the technical committee with an acknowledged role of ensuring the inclusion of diverse civil society throughout the process. UN Women has partnered with the Ministry of Women and Social Affairs setting up of the technical committee and inclusion of civil society in it. UN Women’s convening role has been critical in ensuring that CSOs are included and given an equal role in the committee. It is expected that with strong CSO engagement in the committee, the NAP development process will be more responsive to the needs of women, girls and grassroots groups throughout the country.
UN Women continues to emphasize that quality gender statistics and sex-disaggregated data are integral aspects of achieving gender equality. The government of Ethiopia now is better able to track the implementation of the SDGs with increased availability of data and statistics, including gender statistics. This came as a result of UN Women instrumental support to the Ethiopian Statistical Services (ESS) and the Ministry of Planning and Development in increasing production, availability, accessibility and use of quality data and statistics through setting up the SDG Implementation and Progress Reporting Dashboard, development of the Voluntary National Review (VNR) 2022 as well as expanding its use in policy development, such as draft of the National Strategy on Statistics.
In 2022, UN Women continued to adhere to the theory of change for this outcome bridging silos within the cross thematic collaboration to ensure women’s leadership and participation, accountability mechanisms and processes are in place to effectively redress violations of the rights of women and girls; their organizations and civil society as a whole will be more active and effective in claiming their rights, holding government to account and participating in governance processes and structures.
