By 2026, governance is more inclusive, transparent and accountable, serving to protect human rights, empower women, and reduce violence and discrimination in alignment with the international commitments of Tajikistan (UNSDCF Outcome 4)?
In 2024, UN Women implemented a range of initiatives aimed at supporting Tajikistan's efforts to promote inclusive, transparent, and accountable governance. Although no national and/or local (multi) sectoral strategies, policies and/or action plans with a focus on gender equality, nor National Action Plans on Women, Peace and Security with monitoring indicators were adopted, other actions were aligned with the country’s international commitments to gender equality, human rights, and the reduction of violence and discrimination. UN Women played a pivotal role in supporting the Government of Tajikistan in adopting and finalizing key policy documents that align with global gender equality commitments. State Programme for the Prevention of Domestic Violence (2025–2030): UN Women provided technical and financial assistance in the development of this programme, ensuring its alignment with global standards. The programme reflects inputs from national consultations involving 220 specialists and organizations working with vulnerable women’s groups. It incorporates clear monitoring and evaluation indicators, enabling evidence-based assessment of progress. National Action Plan (NAP): UN Women supported the completion and submission of Tajikistan’s third NAP for government endorsement. This document aligns with UN Security Council Resolution 1325 and highlights Tajikistan’s commitment to women’s inclusion in peace and security governance. UN Women hosted several platforms for multi-stakeholder dialogue, fostering inclusivity and transparency in governance. Open Day for Peace Dialogue : This event brought together women leaders, government officials, civil society actors, and international organizations to discuss strategies for advancing the Women, Peace, and Security agenda. The platform enabled the exchange of best practices and solutions for ensuring women’s leadership in peacebuilding and governance processes. Woman and Water Forum : This event highlighted the pivotal role of women in water governance and management and their empowerment in decision-making processes, bringing together women diplomats, activists, scientists, water sector professionals as well as representatives from State agencies, grass-roots organizations and development partners. UN Women invested in strengthening the capacities of state institutions to deliver gender-responsive governance. Training for Government bodies and Civil-Society Organizations: UN Women conducted targeted capacity-building initiatives for government representatives and civil-society organizations. This included training and share of best practices in the elimination of violence against women (EVAW) and gender-based violence (GBV). Enhancing Data and Evidence for Decision-Making: Recognizing the importance of data for accountability, UN Women supported the development of gender-sensitive indicators to monitor progress in achieving gender equality goals. These indicators are integrated into national plans to measure the impact of governance initiatives on women’s empowerment. UN Women worked to increase women empowerment and provided capacity building initiatives. Empowering Women: UN Women supported training programmes for women. These initiatives equipped women with skills in advocacy for their rights, empowering them to participate more actively in their communities. Efforts to reduce violence and discrimination were a central pillar of UN Women’s work in 2024. Supporting the Implementation of the Law on the Prevention of Domestic Violence: UN Women partnered with state and non-state actors to prepare the Law on Prevention of Domestic Violence. Community-Based Approaches: Grassroots initiatives were supported to engage communities in addressing harmful social norms and practices that perpetuate violence against women. UN Women leveraged partnerships to amplify advocacy efforts for gender equality and inclusive governance. Collaboration with International Partners: UN Women worked closely with UN agencies, donors, and other organizations to harmonize efforts and resources for advancing gender equality. Campaigns and Public Engagement: Advocacy campaigns were launched to raise awareness about women’s rights and the importance of gender equlity. These campaigns emphasized the harmful social gender norms. The organization’s efforts to strengthen policies, foster dialogue, build capacities, and address gender-based violence directly contribute to protecting human rights, empowering women, and reducing discrimination.

By 2026 state and non-state actors coordinate and deliver commitments on gender equality and women's empowerment
The 2024 UNCT SWAP Gender Scorecard Report was successfully completed due to the active engagement of the UN Country Team SWAP Inter-Agency Team, which included the Resident Coordinator Office, as well as Data and M&E Focal Points, Communication Focal Points, Gender Focal Points, and the Operations Management Team from all UN agencies. During the introductory meeting, agencies selected five performance indicators for 2024 reporting and assigned responsible individuals to oversee the reporting process for each selected indicator. While some agencies were less active throughout the reporting period, all agencies contributed equally to the survey on organizational culture, which assessed whether the organizational culture fully supports the promotion of gender equality and the empowerment of women. Since the UNCT-SWAP analysis is conducted on behalf of the entire UNCT, it is difficult to calculate a precise percentage of entities that meet or exceed the UN-SWAP standards. However, a high proportion of reporting entities either met or exceeded minimum requirements on all 5 selected indicators, particularly in relation to organizational culture.
