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.

PCO SN Outcome 1.1: Mechanisms supported by UN Women are in place to assess and report on the progress of the Government of Pakistan’s international Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (GEWE) commitments (aligned to SP Output 1)

During the year, UN Women supported the Ministry of Human Rights (MoHR) to report on Pakistan's international commitments including the dissemination of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) concluding observations. These reports include: i) Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) ii) Convention on Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) iii) Universal Periodic Review (UPR), and iv) International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). PCO also provided technical assistance to the Department of Social Welfare and Women Empowerment, which is the mandated government entity responsible for compiling information on CEDAW from all relevant government departments at the provincial level. The MoHR attended the meeting and provided explicit guidance on the types of information that needed to be documented and reported. To assess and report on Pakistan's international commitments for Gender Equality and Women Empowerment (GEWE), PCO worked with key women machinery including oversight and implementation bodies of the Government of Pakistan. The Inter-Provincial Ministerial Group (IPMG) convened by PCO and the National Commission on the Status of Women (NCSW) was used as a platform to cement and catalyze coordination to build consistent and focused momentum toward GEWE. This approach contributed toward building the capacity of key partners and carrying out strategic planning for stronger and more sustainable impact. In this regard, PCO supported the Strategic Plan development of two key institutions responsible for advancing the gender equality agenda in Pakistan. The Chairperson of NCSW was facilitated to undertake consultative discussions with provincial stakeholders to understand the situation on the ground to develop priorities for the NCSW Strategic Plan and identify interventions needed. The Federal Women Parliamentary Caucus also completed its Strategic Plan through a consultative process, with technical support from PCO. In addition, the National Gender Data Portal (NGDP) provided the needed evidence base to approach GEWE in a pragmatic, efficient, and informed manner. These measures advanced reporting and related mechanisms to assess the progress of Pakistan's international commitments to gender equality, which would ultimately help identify gaps and formulate effective strategies, as needed.
