i-icon World Bank Income Classification:Low Income The World Bank classifies economies for analytical purposes into four income groups: low, lower-middle, upper-middle, and high income. For this purpose it uses gross national income (GNI) per capita data in U.S. dollars, converted from local currency using the World Bank Atlas method, which is applied to smooth exchange rate fluctuations. i-icon Least Developed Country:Yes Since 1971, the United Nations has recognized LDCs as a category of States that are deemed highly disadvantaged in their development process, for structural, historical and also geographical reasons. Three criteria are used: per capita income, human assets, and economic vulnerability. i-icon Gender Inequality Index:0.575 GII is a composite metric of gender inequality using three dimensions: reproductive health, empowerment and the labour market. A low GII value indicates low inequality between women and men, and vice-versa. i-icon Gender Development Index:0.723 GDI measures gender inequalities in achievement in three basic dimensions of human development: health, education, and command over economic resources.

Women, including those in refugees/ IDPS camps and other vulnerable situations, experience enhanced safety, security, physical and mental health, and their human rights respected in conformity with ratified regional and international instruments

Women and girls, including displaced and returnees, continue to benefit from safe and secure socio-cultural environments and improved access to mental health care with the support of UN Women. More national and local media, government institutions, and civil society organizations have become active partners in eliminating negative traditional practices that perpetuate violence against women and girls, and in improving access to services for survivors. Increased work with media and community actors, targeting men, youth, community leaders, artists, cultural and religious leaders, began to gradually transform social norms contributing to violence against women and girls. In 2021, 18 radio stations, including 6 with national coverage and 16 community radio stations, produced and broadcasted 132 programs valorizing positive masculinity as an approach to ending violence against women. With an estimated radio audience of 75% of the population, millions of women, men, girls and boys have been able to access information about available services, as well as on prevention and response strategies to violence againts women and girls. Over 805 community members from 7 provinces enhanced their knowledge and perceptions through training and sensitization workshops aimed at informing participants about violence against women and girls, strengthening the responsibility of community leaders, local administrators, and social workers in community-based care of survivors at local level. These results were achieved through several training workshops, sensitization efforts, trainings, and engagement of non-traditional partners such as Muslim religious leaders (75 Imams), champions of positive masculinity (120 men), artists-creators (54 musicians, movie makers, slammers, etc.). A total of 240 young girl leaders of community-based groups improved their knowledge on themes related to the fight against violence against women and girls, and to conflict prevention and resolution through which they were able to organize community dialogues on tackling COVID-19 and on eradicating Gender-Based and Sexual Violence,on their participation in the management of family conflicts, and on the promotion of positive masculinity. In addition, 110 women community leaders who are displaced, returnees, and from host communities improved their knowledge on gender equality, peace, social cohesion, and on gender mainstreaming in humanitarian crises contexts, and have produced an Action Plan to promote gender equality and women’s empowerment, and address violence against women and girls within their communities. Capacity building of justice institutions to enable the establishment of a national legislative framework in partnership with the Ministry of Justice, has contributed to enabling a judicial environment for survivors to effectively access justice. This included the capacity building of 240 legal practitioners, such as judicial police officers, judges, and prosecutors on the administration of gender sensitive justice.
