DRC is is the most populous country in Central Africa and hosts 10% of the World’s biodiversity. Women and girls maknig up half of the total population.While progress has been made in advancing relevant gender policy frameworks and action, implementation is hindered by security, governance, accountability and institutional, health and economic challenges. UN Women works with instutional and civil society partners to transform social norms and practices to promote gender equality and women’s empowerment at every level of society.
