    Advancing SDGs: UN Women's impact and key achievements

    One of the most significant results of the work carried out by UN Women in Chile during 2023 was the achievement of including a Gender Equality Pillar in the 2023-2026 Cooperation Framework. Pioneering experience in Latin America. With this decision, the gender approach for both the UN in Chile and the Government increases its hierarchy and impact in planning. This Gender Equality pillar is Led by UN Women and Co-led by UNFPA. 15 of the 19 Agencies, Funds and Programs with a presence in the country committed products. The government works with 18 of the 23 Ministries that make up the Executive Branch. That is, 80% of the Executive Branch is involved in this pillar. The Gender Equality Pillar considers 2 lines of work: 1) Gender mainstreaming in State management, and 2) Eradication of gender violence, including humanitarian contexts. In this sense, the impact on women and girls will be direct, to the extent that the United Nations works with the government, in different areas to include the gender perspective in the design of policies and programs. Also, it will directly impact policies to eradicate gender violence. At this point it is important to mention that the budget for 2024 increased considerably for prevention actions and direct care for women and girls survivors. Congreso aprueba presupuesto 2024 del Ministerio de la Mujer y la Equidad de G�nero � MinMujeryEG The work plan of the Gender Equality Pillar contributes to the 6 transitions to achieve the SDGs, working with sectoral ministries to include the gender approach in policies of ministries and public services. There is an emphasis on those sectors of sustainable development, such as: food security, economic autonomy of rural and indigenous women, implementation of climate change policies and new energy sources, among others. At the level of employment and social protection, the focus is on strengthening capacities in stem areas and other non-traditional sectors of female employability such as Infrastructure, Construction, mining and energy. In this area, technical assistance is also provided to strengthen the leadership capacities of working women and their ability to communicate with the employer sector. We work to link the SDGs with the principles of women's economic empowerment to advance the 2030 agenda and support the implementation of C190.
