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.
Complementary indicators are identified as those in the results framework that are not repeated verbatim in the results framework of another United Nations entity, but are related or provide different but complementary lenses or insights into the same issue, high-level result and/or area of complementary work, such as a Sustainable Development Goal target.

SN Outcome 2.4 Violence Against Women and girls is prevented and quality essential services are available and accessible to survivors (Aligned to SP Output 11)
PNG policies and legal frameworks improved in 2023 ensuring protection of human rights defenders women and girls. UN Women supported the consultations and drafting of the Human Rights Defenders draft policy and was reviewed by government technical working group which constitute the following departments Constitutional Law Reform Commission, Department of National Planning and Monitoring, Department of Justice and Attorney General and the Department for Community Development and Religion. The Bill will be finalised in 2024. This will create a conducive environment for human rights defenders who used to suffer backlash and abuse from perpetrators of violence. The National Capital District Commission (NCDC) improved its policies on ending violence against women and girls through drafting and launching of NCDC Gender Equality and Women's Empowerment Strategy 2023-2027. NCDC is among the districts with high rates of violence against women and girls. The GBV strategy will enable the institution to plan, budget, implement and monitor the mainstreaming of Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment through its contractors, its internal human resource policy and supporting the GBV referral pathway in Port Moresby. A pool of advocates and facilitators on ending violence against women and girls was created through Behavior Change Communication Training and Counselling training sessions. Four hundred and seven youths and community leaders were trained on behaviour change communication. The training focused on identifying the types of violence and the support networks/referral pathways available in provinces. The facilitators later cascaded the training to their communities, thereby increasing communities exposure to messages on ending violence against women and girls. This facilitated behaviour change among communities as well as improving help seeking behaviour. UN Women in partnership with other spotlight initiatives partners conducted United for Equality Summit in Port Moresby and was attended by over 653 people from the government, development partners, youths, CSOs , FBOs. The participants engaged in discussions on GEWE issues and developed outcome statements which later presented to the permanent parliamentary committee on GEWE for implementation. Improvements on GBV service provision was noted in 2023. UN Women in partnership with CSOs, church focal points, health and police, provided GBV services to survivors of GBV. The services provided included repatriation, counselling, case management, court system and reintegration. In 2023 1,109 people (F-828, M-281) survivors of GBV benefited from the referral services provided. Safe houses were constructed in Kundiawa and Daru ensuring safety of women and girls facing violence. This construction of the safe houses improved networking amongst referral pathway partners to sustainability of safe houses and improving access to services for survivors. Improved social mobilisation through the creation of CSO Alliance under the umbrella name Bung Wantaim/CSO Alliance advocated for the rights of women and girls. 120 CSO are affiliated to the alliance and it helps to effectively influence and advance on GEWE issues and ending VAWG in PNG. CSO draft strategy and an advocacy plan was developed and it will be finalised in 2024.Disclaimer and notes
