    Outcome insights and achievements

    Outcome progress note for the year

    By 2026, gaps in key socio-economic indicators are reduced, reflecting greater gender equality and progress in the empowerment of youth, women and girls, and other vulnerable groups, including in humanitarian contexts. (Outcome 2.2 /UNSDCF)

    Under UN-Women WPS program, the local economic value chain were promoted for increasing job opportunities for both IDPs and host communities. This focused on seven activities. Potential and promising local economic value chains (LEVCs) were analysed to establish a framework for collaboration between the project, financial institutions and communities in order to reduce competition over economic opportunities. This also enable local authorities to promote or attract new financing for the development of the local economy. All of this were done by facilitating the production of business plans, including the credit management checklist, loan application principles, and the ICT-focused marketing and sales strategy to launch income-generating activities by professional groups / cooperatives. Technical and financial support have been provided for the economic integration of certain displaced persons and women organizations to foster their accessibility to loans and markets including public procurement or municipal contracts.

    By 2026, gaps in key socio-economic indicators are reduced, reflecting greater gender equality and progress in the empowerment of youth, women and girls, and other vulnerable groups, including in humanitarian contexts. (Outcome 2.2 /UNSDCF)

    Until 2023, UN Women, thanks to its donors, has contributed to reducing the gap in key socio-economic indicators through advocacy with the Cameroonian government for the adoption of a law against gender-based violence, through actions to support women in capacity building to facilitate their access to income-generating activities; indeed, by 2023, UN Women has trained 27 women's cooperatives in business plan development and techniques for accessing finance. In addition, through the Women Count project, UN Women is working closely with government partners to improve the production, analysis, dissemination and use of gender statistics. The availability of such data will make it possible to advocate for a reduction in the various gaps.

    By 2026, youth, women, the most vulnerable groups, and people living with disabilities, including refugees and IDPs actively contribute to the efficiency of policies and the performance of public institutions at national, regional and council levels, and fully enjoy their rights (Outcome 3 /UNSDCF)

    UN Women has been actively working to ensure the inclusion of youth, women, vulnerable groups, and people with disabilities, including refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs), in contributing to the efficiency of policies and the performance of public institutions at national, regional, and local levels. This effort aims to guarantee that these groups fully enjoy their rights. As part of its initiatives, UN Women supported the active participation of women in politics through three sessions held in Dzeng, Bafia, and Bikok, engaging 150 female leaders. Additionally, the organization collaborated with institutions such as FEICOM to design policies that better support the development of municipal gender action plans. Furthermore, UN Women played a significant role in peace and humanitarian processes influenced by civil society, fostering inclusivity and gender equality. In parallel, UN Women and UN agencies conducted the comprehensive UNCT-SWAP Gender Equality Scorecard to assess and improve gender equality efforts within the UN system.
