SN Outcome 3. Palestinian governance institutions, processes, and mechanisms at all levels are more democratic, rights-based, inclusive, and accountable.
(UNSDCF Outcome 3)
The implementation of this Outcome has been severely impacted by the start of the war in Gaza in October 2023. The war in Gaza meant that the existing governance institutions, processes and mechanisms may no longer be relevant or sufficiently responsive to implement this Outcome. Further evaluation is needed after the post-war governance structure takes place. At the same time, UN Women - as the rest of the UN - is not sufficiently able to influence this process.
