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.

Outcome Description

UN Women Palestine Office will focus its advocacy and communication efforts on three areas - Generation Equality: Beijing+25 and 20-year of UNSCR 1325. PALCO will continue to engage with both men and women, boys and girls, to address harmful social norms and gender stereotypes and to promote gender equality and empowerment of women and girls. PALCO will furthermore mobilize the international development community on GEWE priorities. Greater efforts will be invested in ensuring that the Palestine Office uses both Arabic and English languages in all external communication channels and materials to ensure reaching a wider range of local audience, while ensuring that key messages are communicated to the global audience to uphold its mandate and position itself as the champion of gender equality in Palestine and globally.

Strategic Note Outcome Progress Note Showing data of : 2022

Increased engagement of partners in support of UN-Women’s mandate

This outcome was partially achieved as planned. Dedicated initiatives with private sector partners (such as the 14 March 2022 Ring the Bell virtual ceremony) provided opportunities to engage non-traditional partners (such as the Palestine Exchange (PEX), the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and the Palestinian Capital Market Authority (PCMA)) as women engaged in decision-making on climate change, adaptation, mitigation, and response as well as in providing innovative financial solutions necessary for advancing economic development by both women and men. The number of initiatives were less than targeted, as we’d initially hoped that there would be additional initiatives in 2022. No action were undertaken with non-traditional partners as defined under indicator 2.C as focused was put on strenghtening relationship with private sector partners. These results are evidenced by the three documents attached here. UN Women used its strategic positioning and advocacy to increase gender equality and inclusive economic growth as well as provide necessary support for national efforts to enhance women's access to decision-making positions. More specifically: Bank of Palestine committed to reaching 50 per cent of women on the Board and launching an incentive package that includes financial services for women to enhance their business sustainability; Paltel Group committed to providing child-care services for employees; and the TNB committed to reaching 25 per cent of women in leadership positions. UN Women provided recommendations to policy makers and corporate signatories as UN Women engaged MoNE in a strategic partnership as part of the WEPs network initiative.
