Outcome insights and achievements
Outcome progress note for the year
Global normative and policy frameworks for gender equality and women’s empowerment are implemented in Samoa
Samoa and Cooks Islands are undertaking gender analysis and review for compliance with the CEDAW Convention and its principles. Samoa's civil servants have gained a deeper appreciation of gender and fiscal justice after capacity building in Gender Responsive Budgeting (GRB). Four government ministries have analysed their budgetary documents, through a rights-based and gender-responsive lens and put forward GRB recommendations and action points for various stages of their respective ministerial budget cycles. The analysis is assisting in monitoring the Samoa government's compliance with CEDAW and also identifying how CEDAW can be used to set equality-enhancing criteria in budget activities to achieve national priorities and the SDGs. This will contribute towards performing evidence-based financial management which will allow the Samoa Government and its partners to make strategic investments that advance gender-responsive sustainable development at lower transaction costs. In the Cook Islands, government ministries are progressing towards assisting the State to become more effective in preparing towards its CEDAW 4 th periodic reporting. A review of the country's progress from 2028 toward CEDAW compliance has identified gaps and challenges and produced a set of recommendations for the State on how these could be addressed.
