UN Women Thailand has advanced its core mandate through the longstanding and trusted partnership with the Royal Thai Government, women’s groups, and CSOs, in alignment with the 2022-2026 UNSDCF. UN Women Thailand’s priority areas include:
(1) Advancing Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) to support further development of the WPS policy framework.
(2) Eliminating violence against women through the prevention and protection of women including women migrant workers from all types of violence and emergency crisis including the COVID-19 pandemic.
(3) Promoting women’s economic empowerment through the engagement of public and private sectors to implement the WEPs, including gender-responsive procurement, the promotion of economic participation, empowerment of women, and enhancing comprehensive and gender-responsive social protection for all.
(4) Reiterating the importance of women’s political and civic participation to support and recognize the multi-stakeholders efforts on empowering women in national and local politics.
This is achieved by nationalising and localising gender-responsive budgeting to ensure gender-equitable resource allocation, promoting gender equality and women’s empowerment.
