UN Women Guatemala in 2022, made satisfactory progress towards the economic empowerment of women, through the promotion of better policies, plans and strategies to promote job opportunities and income generation for women. The three main results of the year being: the launch of the Trifinio Institutional Policy for Gender Equality, the formulation of the project for the formalization of the National Alliance for the Economic Empowerment of Women and the expansion of the number of private companies committed to address gender gaps. The Trinational Commission of the Trifinio Plan launched the Institutional Policy for Gender Equality as part of the actions prioritized by the Vice Presidents of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. The Policy seeks to contribute to inclusive and sustainable development in the Trifinio Plan, by mainstreaming gender equality in its work for the next five years. The policy was technically and financially supported by the Women’s Local Economy and Territory Program (MELYT) with funding from the Italian Cooperation Agency (AICS) and implemented by UN Women El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala Women’s Network (HOSAGUA) and UN Women’s Guatemala supported the construction and validation of this process. In addition, The Ministry of Economy -MINECO- of Guatemala prepared a project document for the formal creation of the National Alliance for the Economic Empowerment of Women thanks to the direct technical support of UN Women through personnel financed with CORE resources, the project contains a framework of results defined for the years 2023-2025 and includes the budget designation and human resources of the Ministry for its implementation. Although the document was finalized in 2022, it is expected to be approved by the Guatemalan Secretariat for Planning and Programming of the Presidency (SEGEPLAN) in the first quarter of 2023. Moreover, a virtual Platform for the collection, analysis, and visibility of the contributions of the Alliance signatories was designed by the Ministry of Economy and UN Women https://empoderamientoeconomi co.org/. The creation of the alliance has the potential to benefit at least 2.8 million women who are active in the economy. Concerning the private sector, 7 new companies have signed the seven Principles for the Empowerment of Women (WEPs) in Guatemala during 2022, for a cumulative total of 45 Guatemalan companies committed to promoting gender equality and the empowerment of women in the workplace, the market and the community thanks to the alliance between the Global Compact and UN Women. One of the lessons learned during 2022 is that the strategy of forming alliances with state entities, the private sector, academia, international cooperation, and Civil Society Organizations, allows for the sum of efforts and work around a common objective, increasing the multiplier effect of actions to advance towards economic empowerment of women. It is important to mention that the Theory of Change of this result is part of the 2022-2025 Strategic Note of the Country Office, which was formulated and approved in 2021.Disclaimer and notes
