    Outcome insights and achievements

    Outcome progress note for the year

    Laws and policies on VAWG in Nigeria and their implementation and monitoring are strengthened to better prevent and respond to the needs of women and girls at risk or survivors of GBV/SGBV/HP

    In partnership with key stakeholders (Government, CSOs and women’s groups), UN Women provided support for the passage and adoption of following laws that promote gender equality: The Gender and Equal Opportunities Bill – The bill is development-oriented and includes provisions which will promote equal access for women and men for instance across all sectors. The Bill also has key provisions such as the adoption of temporary special measures to eliminate discrimination of women and widen the space for women to occupy leadership positions in politics and public office. It also seeks to address several forms of discrimination against women such as land ownership, inheritance, education, employment, and sexual and gender-based violence. UN Women has played key leadership roles in convenings, coordination and advocacies to key stakeholders for the passage of the bill by the National Assembly. The Sexual Harassment Bill, 2020 – This bill seeks to prevent, prohibit and redress the sexual harassment of students in tertiary educational institutions. The Bill has currently been passed by the Senate. UN Women has continually led and supported key advocacy to stakeholders to ensure the passage of the Bill by the House of Representatives and subsequent assent by the President (Executive). The support to the Gender and Equal Opportunities Bill and Sexual Harassment Bill will continue in 2022. The Violence Against Persons Prohibition Act – Through concerted advocacy and partnership with state government ministries and other UN Agencies, UN Women successfully supported the passage of the VAPP in Borno, Adamawa and Sokoto states. UN Women will continue to advocate for the passage of the VAPP law in 2022.
