关于我们
UN Women is the UN organization dedicated to gender equality and the empowerment of women. A global champion for women and girls, UN Women was established to accelerate progress on meeting their needs worldwide. #CSW67 #IWD2023 #PowerOn UN Women supports UN Member States as they set global standards for achieving gender equality, and works with governments and civil society to design laws, policies, programmes and services needed to implement these standards. It stands behind women’s equal participation in all aspects of life, focusing on five priority areas: increasing women’s leadership and participation; ending violence against women; engaging women in all aspects of peace and security processes; enhancing women’s economic empowerment; and making gender equality central to national development planning and budgeting. UN Women also coordinates and promotes the UN system’s work in advancing gender equality.

It has been 1,000 days since the start of the full-scale war in #Ukraine. This war has had a profound and widespread impact on women and girls, leaving close to: ??8 million of them in need of humanitarian assistance. ??2.5 million people—primarily women and girls—in need of support to address gender-based violence, including sexual violence. ??4.6 million Ukrainians internally displaced and seeking refuge abroad. Most of them are women and girls. UN Women is on the ground in #Ukraine, actively supporting the government and civil society to further advance laws and policies that support women’s economic empowerment. Through the Women's Peace & Humanitarian Fund (WPHF) and partners, we reached over 100,000 women and girls. Learn more?? https://lnkd.in/gS9BRx4q
