National, provincial and district plans, legislations, policies, strategies, budgets and justice mechanisms adopted and implemented to strengthen women’s economic empowerment

In 2023, UN Women, improved market governance systems that ensured safe and conducive market environment, inclusivity on market decision making, transparency and accountability on market collection and use of markets revenue. Thiss was achieved through development of market management tools such as Market Operation Tool Kit for market managers and installed a computerized market payment system. Markets operational lans were also developed to ensure gender responsive, transparents and accountability market operation systems. Conducive market operation environment increased market utilisation by vendors and buyers. The achievements were neccesitated by training and mentoring duty bearers market managers and local level government on leadership and market management. Exchange visits were organised for the duty bearers to facilitate behaviour change and understanding of programme initiatives. Market management tool kit and operational plans were used for day-to-day market operations. Women market vendors, through Vendors Associations, can now contribute towards the market management, ensuring women’s needs are being taken care of. In some markets such as Lae, the market management set aside a market section specifically for people living with disabilities, in Wabag, the market is being run by women market vendors association.
