Assuring an accountable organization through principled performance

In 2024, UN Women Ukraine Country Office played a crucial role to advance partner and UN coordination. In terms of partner coordination, The Ukraine CO, in collaboration with the Governments of Ukraine and Germany, established the Alliance for Gender-Responsive Recovery. With more than 60 members, the Alliance is a strategic partnership that brings together governments, international organisations, civil society, and the business community to ensure Ukraine’s gender-responsive and inclusive recovery. As for UN Coordination, Ukraine CO took the lead in re-establishing the UN Gender Theme Group (GTG), which had been dormant since 2022. 17 UN agencies quickly became members, and UN Women was selected to serve as the GTG’s Chair and Secretariat, an indication of the UN Women Ukraine Country Office’s recognized leadership in gender coordination in the UN system. The Ukraine CO, in 2024, continued its strong role as Co-Chair of the GiHA working group, supporting women’s rights organizations to deliver a gender-sensitive humanitarian response, providing a platform for women and other marginalized groups to exercise their voice in the inter-agency coordination mechanisms, and promoting gender mainstreaming throughout the humanitarian coordination architecture.
