Member States capacities are strengthened to scale up their policy, institutional and legislative actions towards gender equality, to eliminate gender-based violence and discrimination, gender biases and stereotypes, including in the digital world The COVID19 pandemic affected women in a differentiated pattern, deepening existing gender gaps and causing a significant setback in terms of human rights and gender equality. Such impact has been more evident in employment, in the accentuated burden regarding care work and reproductive work, or in relation to a greater exposure of women to cases of physical, psychological, sexual, and patrimonial violence. The pandemic had an especially severe impact on women who face multiple discrimination, based on race, ethnicity, age, disability, and other factors, deepening pre-existing gaps and challenges. Extreme violence against women is femicide/feminicide. In Latin America and the Caribbean, there are 14 of the 25 countries with the highest number of femicides/feminicides in the world
Alphabétisation, EFTP et enseignement supérieur Les compétences pour le développement et le monde du travail sont essentielles pour faire face aux défis mondiaux, surtout ceux amplifiés par la crise de la COVID-19. Les progrès ont été insuffisants et inégaux selon les régions, les pays et les populations pendant les dernières décennies. Au Maghreb, la crise sanitaire accompagnée de l'accélération de la digitalisation a fait que des individus accumulant parfois des vulnérabilités (illettrisme, pauvreté, non connectivité, etc.) sont en manque de connaissances nécessaires pour accompagner les changements importants du marché du travail. Aujourd'hui, il est important de doter les apprenants, et en particulier les plus vulnérables, de compétences pertinentes à travers l'amélioration des systèmes d'enseignement de ces pays.

Enhancing S-S and N-S-S networking opportunities through specialized hubs in research and commercialization of R&D products From UNESCO's Science Reports of 2015 and 2021, Sahelian institutional and human capacities in basic sciences, technology, research, innovation, and engineering still lags very much behind the rest of the world with Cape Verde as an exception. Without closing these gaps in scientific and research capabilities many of the existential challenges facing the Sahel such as environmental degradation, water and food security, and industrial development would continue to hamper development with conflicts. Systematic South-South cooperation is one way to bridge the gaps in knowledge and build institutional capacities. This cooperation type helps to bridge the gaps and to strengthen national capacities for skills that are very important for meeting developmental needs and building resilience.
Renforcer la résilience, la qualité et l'équité des systèmes éducatifs des pays du Maghreb Jamais auparavant, l'exigence en matière d'équité, de qualité et de pertinence de l'éducation n'avait été aussi forte. La crise de la COVID-19 a mis en évidence la fragilité des systèmes éducatifs et leur vulnérabilité face aux inégalités. Face à cette crise, les pays du Maghreb ont engagé des efforts dans l'urgence, et ils continuent à trouver des solutions adaptées pour favoriser l'accès à l'éducation pour tous et saisir les opportunités pour construire des systèmes éducatifs plus résilients. Le Bureau œuvrera à renforcer la capacité de résilience des systèmes éducatifs des pays du Maghreb aux chocs futurs et au risque de diminution du financement de l'éducation.
