The contribution aims to support the UN Women’s programmatic work under the overall framework stated by the UN Women' Strategic Note for Moldova. The contribution is going to address persisting gender inequalities through a comprehensive support. UN Women Global Strategic Plan has four impact areas: 

1. Governance & participation in Public Life

With an overall emphasis on effective and transparent institutions and evidence-based policymaking that promote women's empowerment, the UN Women Moldova CO will continue to build the capacities of the National Women's machinery, relevant line ministries, and local governments in mainstreaming GEWE in their respective plans and measures in order to implement the 2030 Agenda, as well as other national plans and international recommendations.

At central level, the CO will support both the development and monitoring of the gender-responsiveness of policy framework, action plans and internal ministerial documents frameworks to advance gender equality.

2. Economic Empowerment & Resilience

UN Women Moldova will continue to focus on policy advice and technical support to relevant legislative bodies, the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection, and related state agencies to amend national legislation on labor, addressing the unequal, unpaid care burden among women.

The work with the private sector will focus on the promotion of Women Empowerment Principles (WEPs) in the corporate and quasi-public sectors, reduction of the gap in wages, promotion of targets and/or quotas for women in managerial positions, improving labor legislation and rural womens access to entrepreneurship, and creation of public-private partnerships to support various women's initiatives. 

Womens access to income, through decent employment opportunities and social security, are a foundation for womens economic empowerment and the achievement of substantive equality.

3. Ending Violence against women & girls

The emphasis under this Outcome will be on empowering women and girls, including from the most vulnerable groups and survivors of violence, to equally participate in social, political, and economic development. To that end, the CO will continue its efforts to ensure that womens voice and agency is strengthened in the design and implementation of policies that consider the diverse needs of women and men.

The EVAW portfolio will take a holistic approach. This includes engaging with governmental and non-governmental stakeholders at the central and local level, as well as addressing prevention, protection, support and integrated services. Improvements to services will be in line with the Istanbul Convention and best international practices and feature improved VAW case management for relevant service providers based on best national and international practices.

4. Peace& Security, Humanitarian Action & Disaster Risk Reduction

UN Women in Moldova will leverage its coordination mandate to ensure that gender equality and womens empowerment (GEWE) are promoted across the humanitarian-development-peace nexus. To further expand humanitarian aid and coordination localization, UN Women will continue to test avenues for the inclusion of Moldovan women-led and womens rights organizations in humanitarian architecture, planning, response, and financing.

UN Women will continue to support the existing three Womens Associations from the Security and Defense sectors and potential ones that may be established. It will also focus on increasing womens meaningful participation in conflict resolution and peacebuilding processes, and will support the functioning of the informal Womens Advisory Board (WAB).
