There has been an overall regression on this outcome in 2022 for Afghanistan given restrictions paused on women and shrinking space for CSOs and specifically women led CSOs to operate. Nonetheless, on the Humanitarian fronts, In 2022, UN Women stepped up initiatives to enhance the participation of women in the humanitarian coordination architecture both at national and provincial levels. At the national level UN Women supported the Afghan Women’s Advisory Group to the HCT with technical support to provide guidance and information on the situation of women and girls as well as participate in both national and regional humanitarian coordination platforms led by OCHA. The Gender in Humanitarian Action Working Group also consistently called on women led organizations to participate in the GiHA working group and other cluster meetings in order to contribute to the decisions, planning and analysis of the humanitarian response. In 2022, UN Women started decentralizing the GiHA working groups led by UN Women senior national staff stationed in the field. They maintained continued presence in five regions actively participating in humanitarian coordination meetings and proactively encouraging other women led organizations to join in. As of December 2022 one local GiHA working group had been set up in Northern region and two were underway in Western and Southern Regions of Afghanistan. Going forward, these forums will be sustained and given gravitas to engage with the Inter Cluster Coordination teams (ICCTs) and Regional Humanitarian Teams (RHTs), while information will be shared with women organizations and their voices raised in these forums. Conscious of the language barriers, UN Women provides translation services to ensure messages are well received by women CSO’s as well. On WPS, no national peace and security processes existed in 2022, as the peace process collapsed in 2021 after the Taliban takeover. In the absence of national platforms for women related to peace and security, UN Women, in partnership with UNAMA, undertook consultations with Afghan women across the country to feed their perspectives in UN decision-making in Afghanistan and HQ. This approach has ensured that the voices of Afghan women leaders are represented in fora related to peace, security and humanitarian issues, contributing to gender outcomes such as WPS language in the UNAMA mandate renewal.Disclaimer and notes
