World Bank Income Classification:Low IncomeThe World Bank classifies economies for analytical purposes into four income groups: low, lower-middle, upper-middle, and high income. For this purpose it uses gross national income (GNI) per capita data in U.S. dollars, converted from local currency using the World Bank Atlas method, which is applied to smooth exchange rate fluctuations.Least Developed Country:YesSince 1971, the United Nations has recognized LDCs as a category of States that are deemed highly disadvantaged in their development process, for structural, historical and also geographical reasons. Three criteria are used: per capita income, human assets, and economic vulnerability.Gender Inequality Index:0.575GII is a composite metric of gender inequality using three dimensions: reproductive health, empowerment and the labour market. A low GII value indicates low inequality between women and men, and vice-versa.Gender Development Index:0.723GDI measures gender inequalities in achievement in three basic dimensions of human development: health, education, and command over economic resources.

Data reported for 2022 results against this indicator was obtained as part of a learning process on social norms and therefore may not accurately reflect the results obtained. Internal reviews of data collected on social norms across relevant indicators, coupled with external reviews, are informing the design of UN Women’s principled approach to social & gender norms change. This will be reflected in changes to the indicators to be introduced in the Mid-Term Review of the Strategic Plan.

2022
Stakeholders are committed to prevent VAW and to deliver quality essential services to WSV
Outcome 3.1 was successfully achieved in 2022.
Institutional representatives from the Office of the Public Prosecutor / tribunals; the Ministry of Health / hospitals; the Women’s machinery / housing centers for WSV; the police forces; and Royal Guard / specialized units strengthened their culture of monitoring and evaluation of essential services provision following a self-assessment on the implementation of the protocol at institutional level. The assessment generated recommendations to improve the service provision for WSV. This process will inform future regional evaluations on the quality of the service provision for WSV for better inter-sectoral coordination. The established culture of self-assessment reflects a strong sense of ownership and a clear commitment to service provision to ensure that quality services are provided. UNW further supported intersectoral coordination with service providers for WSV through the monitoring and evaluation of the territorial protocol for providing coordinated services to WSV.
Police forces more adequately deploy in response to the prevalence of various forms of violence, taking into account occurrence time and geographical location. This is a result of the Police response to VAWG becoming increasingly informed by data analysis collected by the VAW field Units. For example, when the data collected in one district showed a low rate of complaints on cyber-violence, the National Police strengthened its communication strategy in this area on the services available to survivors of this particular form of violence. The National Police is committed to ensure a better coordination of their local response to deliver quality essential services to WSV.
In 2022, In this regard: (i) The High Commission for Planning (HCP) developed a user-friendly online platform to display key gender statistics, including statistics from the national prevalence VAW study; (ii) the Office of the Public Prosecutor (OPP) published the annual report of judicial statistics, which includes VAW statistics and elaborated an integrated national action plan to end early and forced child marriage; (iii) the police forces continued to collect and disseminate VAW data (including the number of complaints received and processed, number of complaints dropped, authors' profiles, etc.). These efforts reflect stakeholders’ commitment to improve the quality of targeted essential services provision to WSV. UN Women supported each of these steps taken by duty bearers to better produce data, knowledge, and communication tools informing VAW policies.
An increasing number of national institutions, private sector companies, NGOs, and other relevant stakeholders engaged in VAW prevention efforts. Stakeholders demonstrated national ownership over the 16 Days campaigns as a result of UNW’s continuous advocacy. UNW is solicited by current partners and non-partners to conduct awareness-raising activities during the 16 Days campaign. This is a testimony of an increased commitment to prevent VAW. This year, new key strategic partner, the Ministry of Youth, Culture, and Communication, jointly organized, with UN Women, a film festival on women’s rights and gender-based discrimination that mobilized more than 700 people. In addition, the National Commission for Data Protection organized an event to launch a new platform dedicated to the protection of private citizens’ lives and the processing personal data of children, adolescents and women, including WSV when they report VAW cases to national institutions. UN Women partnered with the Commission to launch this platform.
