India Country Office is supporting the implementation of ADB TA 9735-IND ‘Advancing Gender Responsive Budgeting (GRB) in Select States’ with challenging timelines and difficult conditions under the Service Agreement with the Asian Development Bank (the Donor). This Project is being directly implemented by UN Women India CO. The SMT has regularly monitored the progress under the Project and provided continuous guidance and necessary intervention for efficient and effective implementation of the Project. India CO decided to renovate the existing space occupied by three agencies- UN Women, UNAIDS, UNOICT and UNDP. The renovation is towards re-designing the existing space to align with the renovations carried out by UNDP in other area of the premises. UN Women Operations Manager took the lead and coordinated in finalizing the contract, funding and other aspects of the renovation which will be carried out in due course.

Training provided by the India staff for new joinees on Procurement Policy, processes, and guidelines as part of Induction training. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed almost everything. With the advance of vaccination, the return to normality is getting closer and organizations are taking the opportunity to rethink their office model. Among the most widely adopted options is hot-desking, which consists of creating shared and on-demand workspaces that are more flexible, more economical, and more oriented towards fostering collaboration among employees. Over the last few years, the number of staff has been increasing and it requires better planning for seating arrangement. Given the space constraints and limitations of available workstations, the office decided to renovate the existing space occupied by three agencies- UN Women, UNAIDS, UNOICT and UNDP. The renovation is towards re-designing the existing space to align with the renovations carried out by UNDP in other area of the premises. The main purpose of this work is to have better lighting facility, cubicle workspace, Orthopaedical chairs etc in the basement area which is currently occupied by the four agencies. UN Women- Operations Manager took the lead and coordinated in finalizing the contract, funding and other aspects of the renovation which will be carried out in due course. The UN Premises is occupied by UN Women, UNAIDS, UNOICT and UNDP. The India CO maintained consistency in organising All Staff meeting to learn from various thematic teams and operational teams on programmatic interventions, management skills, operational policies and guidelines, for effective delivery of the organisatuional commitment on GEWE. The Office also leveraged local opportunities to organise trainings on Wellness and Work-life balance, Prevention of Sexual Exploutation and Abuse, Ways of Joint p[rogramming etc. Further, the office leveraged regional opportunities to build capacities of various relevant staff members on Programme Management; Operations including new procurement systems; UN Coordination on GEWE; Corporate Policies etc. A fitting example of this is the Office's strong capacity to swiftly migrate onto Quantum, identifying early challenges and gaps, for quick solutions with ROAP and HQ. On the Human Resources front, the Office has grown strong in HR Strength, with retention of key technical capacities within the senior and mid-level staff members. 1. Prog. Assistant - Prog.
