i-icon World Bank Income Classification:Low Income The 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. i-icon Least Developed Country:Yes Since 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. i-icon Gender Inequality Index:0.575 GII 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. i-icon Gender Development Index:0.723 GDI measures gender inequalities in achievement in three basic dimensions of human development: health, education, and command over economic resources.

Strategic Note Outcome Progress Note Showing data of : 2023

By 2025, Libyan citizens, particularly youth and women, are better able to exercise their rights and obligations in an inclusive, stable, democratic, and reconciled society, underpinned by responsive, transparent, accountable, and unified public institutions. (UNDSCF Outcome 1.1 (taken verbatim))

The outcome was partly achieved as planned. First, progress was made towards the outcome as Libyan female citizens are better able to exercise their rights and obligations through public institutions. Female representative of CSOs and aspiring candidates promote women's rights and empowerment in electoral processes. 82 Libyan women (from 37 regions including young women, women with disabilities, women belonging to different ethnic groups, women living in rural areas, Women IDPs, and women providing care and support) have knowledge on the principles and processes of democracy in relation to the political empowerment of women, understanding of women's political rights and of issues of political violence against women including online violence against women candidates and a familiarity with sovereign institutions, their modus operandi, mandates and legal framework, and electoral principles and processes. A network to support each other as they face challenges with political violence, amongst other issues, has been created and a voluntary pledge “Women for Women” to support women’s rights and political participation has been signed. According to pre/post evaluation tests, knowledge on the principles and processes of democracy in relation to the political empowerment of women, on women's political rights, on issues of political violence against women including online violence against women candidates, sovereign institutions, their modus operandi, mandates and legal framework, and electoral principles and processes - increased from 28% to 63%, and the percentage of women reporting to have excellent and good knowledge of the topics increased from 65% to 89% after the intervention. UN Women Libya contributed to this by organizing 4 four-day in-person training on women political participation, coordinating with the High National Elections Commission (HNEC) to provide training sessions for women candidates on the electoral process, and facilitating a dialogue between the trainings. Second, civil society increased its level of influence. Women-led and women-focused civil society organizations have strengthened capacities to support normative and political processes on women's empowerment for peace and security processes: 20 women representatives of civil society organizations, aspiring candidates, politicians, and heads of women networks, including women IDPs, youth, and women with disabilities, have knowledge and capacities on electoral laws in Libya. They also have knowledge on Libya’s proposed electoral process for National Assembly’s chamber, the Senate and the House of Representatives (HoR), in light of the electoral law presented by 6+6 in October 2023 and concrete recommendations to address their challenges were formulated. This has been achieved through the workshop organized by UN Women Libya in collaboration with UNSMIL on women’s safe and meaningful participation in Libya’s electoral process. The workshop was further enriched with the participation of a member of the 6+6 committee and representatives from HNEC. Based on the progress made, the strategy and theory of change are largely still applicable. UN Women will continue to diversify its engagement with civil society by focusing on youth and persons with disabilities as well as leveraging its coordination function to link civil society initiatives with decision-makers. If this strategy is successful, impact-level changes in the lives of women and girls in the areas of inclusive reconciliation and participation of women are expected within five (5) years.
