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.

Uptake of essential justice services by survivors VAWG increased

In 2021, there was increased uptake of justice services by survivors of VAWG. UN Women contributed to this through continued support to an improved legal and policy environment on GBV both at National and County levels through technical Assistance in select counties to develop and implement GBV model policies and laws; capacity building of key duty bearers to enforce and implement GBV legislation at both national and county level; strengthening GBV coordination mechanisms and directly supporting survivors through their networks to access GBV essential services. This was achieved through support to various counties (Turkana and Kitui) in the development and/or review of their GBV policies to be aligned to national laws and policies, as well as convening support to various interest groups to be able to articulate their specific issues in the development of these laws and policies as part of public participation processes. Through UN Women support, six-county GBV policies were reviewed to align them to the Model County GBV policies and with relevant national laws and policies of GBV prevention and response. To ensure that the GBV policy review processes were gender-responsive and inclusive, duty bearers, members of the county GBV working groups, and survivors' networks were convened to provide their feedback on the draft policies, as a crucial part of public participation processes. Moreover, the capacity of the county duty bearers was strengthened through training on gender-responsive planning and budgeting, to enhance their capacity to advocate for prioritising GBV financing by the counties. This is a complimentary process to the development and review of GBV policies to ensure the counties have prioritized and set aside adequate funding for the implementation of the policies being developed or reviewed. A key aspect of increasing uptake of essential justice services entailed supporting GBV data that will be used for evidence-based policy and programming. UN women supported this through support to the KDHS process to include a GBV module for the first time, and the review of various tools that will be used in the process.
