Strategic Note Outcome Progress NoteShowing data of :
2022
With its unique and inclusive culture, UN-Women is an employer of choice with a diverse and highly performing cadre of personnel that embodies UN values
There has been evident progress in this area in 2022.
The capacity and confidence of staff across all levels and contract modalities have increased as a result of the Country Office's continued investment in deepening the leadership bench with a feminist excellence approach. Over 30 per cent of all staff meetings have been co-chaired by support staff for the first time. A substantial commitment to staff learning across functions and thematic areas has further strengthened staff capacity on issues such as adaptive leadership, intersectionality, disability and inclusion, reporting, programme management, and resource mobilization. UN Women's initiatives, such as approachable senior management, a culture of recognition, with an emphasis on being self-directed and other-centric, and a participatory approach to decision-making, among others, have created an empowering and enabling environment for all personnel, as noted in the Human Resources Functional Analysis conducted in 2022. These efforts were supplemented by engagement with the regional Office of Ombudsman, under which UN Women is piloting the Respectful Workplace Facilitator (RWF) initiative as informal conflict resolution mechanism in select country offices including Bangladesh.
The enhanced leadership and teamwork skills, as demonstrated by personnel's representation in the office-wide task teams and groups, have fostered a culture of personal and collective reflective learning. More than 70 per cent of staff are voluntarily engaged in at least one of the seven task teams, enabling cross-thematic and cross-functional collaboration on key internal and external agendas such as prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse (PSEA), disability and inclusion, youth engagement, and engaging men and boys. Out of the three task teams with an action plan, two over-achieved on their implementation (Disability and Inclusion, and Youth Task Team) exemplifying UN ideals and creating the space for transformative change. UN Women’s joint leadership with UNFPA to undertake a table-top exercise on PSEA enhanced the UN Country Team (UNCT) members’ capacity to deliberate on and better prepare for PSEA scenarios.
A key lesson learned in 2022 is that progress in this regard is not linear. In order to facilitate a cultural shift in thinking and approach, it is essential that personnel and the office collectively reflect and explore our common values and vision, in an open and inclusive manner. To further strengthen the learning culture, the office will establish a learning committee in 2023, in line with recommendations from the Human Resources Functional Analysis.
