During the reporting year, significant progress was made in providing rights-based quality services to women survivors of violence. Over 280 women and their children, including women with disabilities, from rural areas, and from ethnic minorities, benefitted from specialized services provided in line with the standards of the Istanbul Convention, including psycho-social counselling, legal aid and legal representation, and social mentoring for economic empowerment. 249 survivors (women and girls) of violence in the South-East region of North Macedonia received services from two newly opened psycho-social counselling centres, led by partner CSOs (Skaj Plus Strumica and EHO Stip), technically supported by UN Women’s partner CSO HERA. Adoption of the municipal Local Action Plan for Gender-based Violence (GVB) in Strumica which includes financial allocations for the center ensured the sustainability of the services after UN Women’s technical guidance throughout the process. 13 women survivors of violence, who are also long-term unemployed and single mothers, had employment opportunities and enrolled into labour market in the private sector, public institutions or self-employed, through a 12-month social mentoring programme for economic empowerment organized by UN Women partner CSO PUBLIC. The women have reported enhanced self-confidence in seeking employment and an improved financial situation resulting in better quality of life and wellbeing.? https://eca.unwomen.org/en/stories/interview/2022/10/interview-every-positive-change-in-each-woman-survivor-is-a-success-in-itself 17 Roma women survivors of domestic violence benefitted from legal representation in their divorce cases, provided by UN Women partner CSO National Roma Centrum Association. 10 cases concluded with positive court decisions in favour of the women and their marriages were terminated by final court decisions.
