In 2022, UN Women continued to strengthen its grant-making and partner-selection modalities to support co-created, transformative change. As a result, the key programme staff enhanced its capacities on partner selection procedures. UN Women continued use of systems for partner agreement management as well as enhanced due diligence prior to engagement of partners. UN Women has been instrumental in various UN system wide programme fora including the Humanitarian Country Team, Programme Management Team, UN Senior Management Team and the UN Country Team to ensure its programmes are line with and contributing to the results and goals of the United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework. Operationally, the country office continued to participate in the Operation Management Team forum and the Business Operation Strategy and its initiatives on common shared premises, piloting the common back-office operations. UN Women commissioned an impact assessment of the long-term intervention on prevention and response to violence against women and girls (VAWG)of one of implementation partners, the Association for Women’s Sanctuary and Development (AWSAD), in Oromia region. Overall, the impact assessment registered promising and commendable achievements in relation to providing quality comprehensive rehabilitation and reintegration services, especially in meeting the needs and priorities of survivors of VAWG in Oromia region as well as in terms of wider scalability and program expansion. A key lesson learnt from the impact assessment is on the need to diversify market-oriented skills development programme so that survivors are able to secure jobs relevant to their skills. Further recommendation was suggested to conduct in-depth research on the economic empowerment in prevention and response to VAWG to generate evidence driven data and analysis for future programming and advocacy. UN Women has participated as a case study for an external mid-term assessment was conducted on the global Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) project ‘Women and girls who have experienced/are experiencing GBV or are at risk of GBV benefit from provision of and access to quality services and empowered to increasingly engage in decision making and leadership in GBV response, mitigation and prevention’ in Amhara and Afar regions. Key findings from the assessment indicate on the need for flexibility, agility and adaptability of UN Women and partners to operate in dynamic humanitarian context in the country. Furthermore, the assessment highlighted a need for long-term and holistic approach to capacity building of women’s led organizations to effectively participate in humanitarian action.Disclaimer and notes
