Nurturing an empowered workforce and advancing an inclusive UN-Women culture

The CO team took ownership of the office space, and together with the team building actions and the OIC missions, generated an increase in attendance and fostered teamwork, interdisciplinary and inter-task work with the consequent strengthening of personal and work bonds and learning. It was also agreed to organize and respect more the time of colleagues with care responsibilities and lunch schedules. These improvements helped to promote a better balance between people's work and personal lives, helping to reduce some of the stress and achieve a more equitable distribution of work.
