UN Women’s Nigeria Strategic Note 2023–2027 responds to gender inequalities and promotes women's empowerment in North-East Nigeria, where conflict exacerbates gender inequalities, and the North-West and South-West regions.
Priorities comprise addressing gender-based violence, advancing women's economic empowerment and enhancing women's political participation. Strategies such as community engagement and policy advocacy help to achieve these objectives.
The programme collaborates with major partners such as local non-governmental groups, international organizations and government agencies to extend reach and effectiveness. Significant outcomes include increased awareness of gender issues, improved access to resources for women and strengthened legal frameworks. Strategic Note direct funding has been instrumental in supporting these initiatives.
