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.

Governments and civil society support progress on implementation of normative and policy frameworks, and work together to drive forward legislative change and reform

In the lead up to the 2022 election in Lebanon, UN Women developed and begin implementing a comprehensive strategy to support women’s political representation. This included bespoke campaign support to four hundred and fifty (450) female potential candidates, who improved their political knowledge, while securing media partnerships to spotlight the role of women candidates in the political and democratic systems and to address issues of violence against women in Lebanon’s elections. Of the women who ran for office, 70% benefited from UN Women Lebanon’s support. Of those that won, 50% of the first-time female MPs had benefited from UN Women Lebanon’s support. In addition, in 2021, UN Women continued to support national authorities and civil society to call for, and develop, gender responsive legislative options. Following UN Women’s support to the 2020 passage of the anti-sexual harassment law, work that was led by the NCLW, AUB and others, UN Women collaborated with the American University of Beirut to work with employers to adopt anti-SH policies in their workplaces. Technical drafting workshops with private sector HR representatives were hosted, and one example of impact is that the HOLDAL Group realigned and developed measures and guidance to prevent and address workplace sexual harassment. In addition, UN Women worked with NCLW, UNDP, Members of Parliament and other actors to push forward advocacy around the adoption of Temporary Special Measures, particularly gender quotas, in electoral processes. Specifically, UN Women funded NCLW to develop a gender quota proposal, which was – amongst others, submitted to Parliament for debate. UN Women also funded the Lebanon Feminist Platform (52 NGOs) to echo calls for the application of a gender quota, contributing to t a debate on the quota being hosted in Parliament. Continued work was undertaken in support of advocacy for a unified personal status law (UPSL). While a UPSL is a long-term objective, the current personal status law system underpins gender inequality in Lebanon, and continued advocacy for its reform is necessary to ensure it remains a key demand of political actors.
