The record on qualitative progress in legal and political provisions lead by women politicians (Gender Equality Commission, congresswomen, female mayors and councilors, Forum for Women Politicians) and women civil society organizations and with the technical support and political backing of UN Women, is summarized bellow: - The Administrative act of the National Electoral Council established that political parties must present a work in which 15% of the resources are destined to promote women's leadership and that this must be signed by the Secretary for Women of each party (Certification 498- 2022) - Integration of a gender perspective in the General Budget of the Nation 2023 (GBN), ensuring investment to all the levels to achieve SDG 5: 50% increase in budget allocations for Women's Institutions; budget allocated in Security and Justice institutions for the prevention, protection, and investigation of VAW, including the timely investigation of femicides ; new funds for women's access to credit; special scholarships for the education of women ; 300% increase budget for Casas Refugio and 400% for VAW prevention. - Establishment and approval of the rules of procedure of the Gender Equality Commission of the Association of Municipalities of Honduras (AMHON) and inclusion of a gender approach in the AMHON Institutional Plan 2023-2028. UN Women provided technical assistance to National Congress Gender Equity Commission, SEMUJER and women's organizations for participatory formulation, consultation processes and development of advocacy strategies for the approval of Chapter V of GBN. In particular, UN Women contributed to: developing a training process for congresswomen and women organizations, the promotion and strengthening of the Inter-institutional Budget Board, the development of an analysis of past budgets to demonstrate gaps. In terms of strengthening the capacities of women politicians elected for the period 2023-2026, through a Diploma (80 hours) taught by a recognized university, the formulation of gender-sensitive municipal budgets was achieved in 40 municipalities (as a degree project) and as a consequence provision for gender equality were included in some municipalities. At the level of strengthening the existing data on the political participation of women, through technical support to the Political Observatory for Women, two Reports were prepared and published: Report No. 4. Results of National Elections 2021 Honduras, Balance of Parity and Alternation, and; Report No. 5 Violence against women in politics in the electoral and post-electoral period. Report 4 was widely disseminated, being a source of information for different media and key players since it is the only report of its kind and because of the rigor of its methodology. In addition to demonstrating that the parties complied with parity and alternation, the aforementioned report showed that the obstacles to the participation of women are based on the practices of political parties of leading their lists with men and not financially supporting the campaigns of women. It is also highlighted that the reports of the Women's Political Observatory and UN Women were mentioned in the electoral reports of the EU and OAS on the electoral process in Honduras.Disclaimer and notes
