2022
High quality programmes
The output was achieved against the planed targets and plans for the 2022 and as overall SN implementation for the period of 2028-2022. The implementation of a high-quality programme in line with UN Women SP 2022-2025, UNSDCF Moldova (2018-2022) and SN of UN Women CO (2018-2022) remains the CO’s top priority. The new SN for the period 2023-2027 and BWP (2023-2024) of the CO has been approved in due time with highly positive feedback received throughout the process from the ECA RO as well as HQ colleagues and highly appreciated as in-house development work done by the CO. The new SN build on the findings and recommendations from the final evaluation of the SN ended in 2022.
The Government of the Republic of Moldova and the United Nations have signed, on November 24, 2022, the United Nations – Republic of Moldova Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework 2023-2027 ( UNSDCF ). The framework is aiming to help address the country’s development challenges and barriers to more inclusive social and economic development in line with the national priorities outlined in the National Development Strategy (NDS) “European Moldova 2030”. UN Women CO as part of UNCT were pro-active part of the development of the gender mainstreamed Cooperation Framework and strong advocate for gender equality across all situation analysis and planning stages.
The UN Women CO have a new Strategic Note (SN) for the period of 2023-2027 build on the final evaluation of the SN 2018-2022 and broader consultation on the existing yet challenges on gender equality issues at country levels and the commitments assumed by the Republic of Moldova under the new status of candidate country to the European Union . The candidacy status was granted with the understanding that important steps will be undertaken by Moldova by the end of 2022, including obligations on the protection of human rights and sustaining the commitments on gender equality and ending violence against women. [1]
The Government have approved a set of strategic documents aiming to improve the women returns to labour market by developing the alternative childcare solutions; enhancing the national statistical system and provides for decision-making process more sex disaggregated data. Other three drafted policy documents on National Action Plan ( NAP ) for 2023-2027 on UNSCR 1325; the new Programme on gender equality and its subsequent Action Plan for 2023-2027; strategy on Public Finance Management ( PFM ) were shared for public consultations as well. UN Women broadly support all these processes of policy development from the situation analysis and through the drafting process to ensure better gender mainstreaming. The expert support and participatory platform offered for co-development of the strategic documents under the annual work plan implementation.
24 mayors, 15 members of the MDTs, 43 Stakeholders responsible for assisting victims/survivors of sexual violence from the local communities from districts Cahul and Ungheni, from the national authorities as well the CO staff benefited from the diverse event of capacity buildings, shared peer experiences from the EU member states ( Austria, Sweden, Romania, the Western Balkans). The gathered knowledge helps to promote better, innovative ways of working at country levels on about the good practices in mainstreaming gender equality in central and local public administration using gender responsive budgeting, on coordinated response for violence against children and gender-based violence (including sexual violence, domestic), on economic empowerment for women survivors of violence etc.
