View annual report narratives for the year
In 2024, the Colombian Government proudly launched its first National Action Plan in line with Resolution 1325/2000. This groundbreaking plan emerged from one of the most participatory formulation processes, reflecting the voices and priorities of over 1,500 women from 32 departments across Colombia. Their invaluable insights were gathered through 6 macro-regional forums, 7 territorial and 7 sectoral meetings, all facilitated by the National Government with the support of UN Women. The launch event, held on November 30th with UN Women's collaboration, was a powerful gathering, uniting more than 200 women from across the nation with high-level representatives from the National Government, including the Vice President, various ministers, and international cooperation representatives. This National Action Plan outlines 105 impactful actions designed to achieve eight main objectives, directing 33 entities toward a common vision. Each action is imbued with purpose, featuring clear goals, indicators, budgets, and funding sources through to 2034. This initiative embodies a commitment to empowerment, directly contributing to the first pillar of the UNSDCF and aligning with SDG targets 5.1, 5.1, 5.4, 5.7, 8.3, 16.3, 16.7. At the same time, UN Women, as a part of its normative mandate, supported the National Congress to pass 20 new laws on women�s rights, including the bill that prohibits Child Marriage and Early Unions in Colombia, a milestone in the advancement on the commitment of Colombia to align its laws with international standards, a law on gender parity in leadership roles within public institutions (Law 2424/2024), on the recognition of women searching missing persons (Law 2364/2024), and on maternity leave for women in politics (Law 2436/2024). The Colombian government also issued the decree for the Feminist Foreign Policy, with UN Women contribution. Moreover, in 2024, we experienced an impressive 40.94% increase in public project markers that utilized the Gender Budget Tracker and 25 new Local Development Plans embracing a gender-sensitive approach were created, with the support of UN Women through its dedicated gender budgeting and public management strategy. (direct contribution to UNSDCF pillar 3 and 5, SDG 5.1, 5.2, 5.4, 5.5, 5.7, 5.9). Overall, thanks to UN Women support in 2024, over 35,000 Colombians � more than 85% of whom are women and girls (19% Afro-Colombian and Indigenous) � are experiencing a transformative boost in their political, social, and economic skills across 20 departments. In addition, our contribution has empowered almos
48,483 Colombians (over 89% women and girls) are now more empowered with stronger political, social and economic capacities in 122 municipalities (18 departments) thanks to the following: Regarding the Women, Peace and Security Agenda (UNSDCF 1.1, 1.2, 3.5, SDG 5.1, 5.4, 5.7, 8.3, 16.3, 16.7), for the first time in Colombia, a roadmap for the formulation of the National Action Plan of the Resolution 1325 that includes the inputs and priorities of more than 1,500 women who participated in 6 macro-regional forums, 7 territorial meetings, and 7 sectorial meetings (including one for rural women), was developed thanks to the efforts of the National Government with the support of UN Women and international cooperation community. Alongside, 12,478 women and girls (39% afrocolombians and indigenous) and 115 CSOs (youth, ethnic, rural, 1 LGBTQI+, women with disabilities) are now more empowered with stronger advocacy, political and economic capacities thanks to the implementation of competitive funding mechanisms for civil society organizations (funded by Norway � Prodefensoras-, WPHF, PBF GYPI and Koica). Moreover, thanks to the COs implementation of an innovative model of a comprehensive response to the migrant population and host communities in mixed migratory fluxes context (UNSDCF 2, SDG 5.1, 5.2, 5.5, 10.7), more than 10,961 persons (85% girls and women) in 8 cities (Barranquilla, Soledad, Riohacha, Maicao, Santa Marta and Cartagena in the Caribbean Coast, and Pasto and Ipiales in Nari�o) are now more empowered to promote social cohesion and gender-equality. Out of these, 2,205 women are more politically empowered, by positioning their leadership and advocating for the incorporation of their priorities and needs in the local gender equality agenda. Furthermore, 2,091 women are now more economically empowered, by having access to entrepreneurship and employability strategies. The model also strengthened 8 CSOs, supported 160 GBV cases, and enhanced 32 enterprises of migrant women and women from host communities. At the same time, in terms of political participation and gender in public management (UNSDCF 3.2, 5.4, 5.5, 5.c), more than 1,000 women were politically empowered thanks to the implementation of the �More Women, More Democracy� strategy in alliance with Sweden, as they enhanced their political leadership skills for the local elections of October 2023 by realizing a certified 100-hour training. Within the same strategy, 309 women elected in the most recent local elections enhanced their skills and coordinated a common agenda by participating in the National Forum of Elected Women, as well as in the three Local Forum of Elected Women held in Cauca, Nari�o, and Choc�. Finally, the use of the Gender Budget Tracker has increased thanks to the partnership with KOICA, Canada and Sweden, by reaching a total of 360 public projects marked with the Gender Budget Tracker, as a result of the technical support provided to 20 local governments.
