Under the lead of the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection, the Government continued its efforts towards the achievement of a gender-sensitive service delivery including the provision of equitable and effective justice and security services. This is evident by the creation of Gender and Social Protection Units in security institutions, i.e. the Ministry of Justice and the Liberia National Fire Service, the Ministry of Defense. The Government has also demonstrated its commitment to the full implementation of the Second Phase of the National Action Plan on Women Peace and Security (NAP WPS) by providing continuous support to the various implementation structures such as the National Steering Committee, the Technical Working Group, the Monitoring and Evaluation Unit and County Task Forces through capacity building and mentoring. In further demonstration of its commitment to gender and women’s rights, the Government increased its allocation in the national budget from USD 200,000 to USD 380,000 and further increased the line Ministries piloting the enhancement of gender equality and elimination of violence against women and sexual reproductive health from six to nine. This is a significant step towards institutionalizing gender responsive budgeting across government. It is expected that the number of ministries as well as the amount will further increase in the next budget year as well.Disclaimer and notes
