The UN Women Programme in Honduras is implemented in line with the national development priorities, as well as in the framework of the international commitments to gender equality, and the United Nations Cooperation Framework for Sustainable Development.
UN Women in Honduras works with strategic partners from government, civil society, academia and the private sector in the following key areas:
1. Women lead, participate in, and benefit equally from governance systems
2. Women have income security, decent work, and economic autonomy
3. All women and girls live a life free from all forms of violence
4. Women and girls contribute and have greater influence in building sustainable peace and resilience, and benefit equally from natural disaster and conflict prevention and humanitarian action.
UN Women also coordinates and promotes the UN system’s work in advancing gender equality. As part of the United Nations Country Team, it leads the Inter-Agency Thematic Group on Gender, and actively contributes to the other UN inter-agency mechanisms.
