Strategic Note Outcome Progress NoteShowing data of :
2023
By 2025, institutions and people throughout Timor-Leste in all their diversity, especially women and youth, benefit from sustainable economic opportunities and decent work to reduce poverty.
Rural women represent 31.22% of the population in Timor-Leste and are amongst those furthest behind in accessing their economic rights and livelihood opportunities. In 2018, the Government of Timor-Leste adopted the second Maubisse Declaration to improve the lives of rural women and girls over a five-year period (2018-2023). Declaration targets include policies that ensure 30% of those employed on public infrastructure projects in rural areas are women, greater participation of women-owned businesses, and improved disaggregated of data for better monitoring of public infrastructure project implementation. Recognizing that Tais weaving is a sector with potential do enable rural women to be economically empowered, UN Women has consistently invested in supporting women weavers as a sub-group particularly marginalized. The network includes 600 rural women from across the country organised in municipal subgroups that now access to organised capacity building, business orientation, marketing, and other forward linkages. These forward linkages include a range of upskilling initiative such as access to gender responsive production infrastructure, upmarket commercial retail spaces and a coalition of global designer as advisory group to support product diversification. The weaver’s group has its own following on social media that includes the honourable President of Timor Leste.
Further, the women weaver’s economic collective with the support of UN Women launched the first ever upscale retail space completely owned and managed by Women Weavers in the heart of Dili, the capital city generating generating a total revenue of 33,432.50 USD from August - December 2023. The store, first of its kind, is a critical milestone in the efforts of government and development partners in the country to strengthen women’s associations, while at the same time safeguarding and promoting the traditional art of Tais in Timor-Leste.
