UNDP Guinea-Bissau Gender Analysis

March 16, 2021

The need for a comprehensive analytical study on gender equality in Guinea-Bissau is huge. The core objective of this study is to support the UNDP Country Office with an objective analysis and in-depth view on gender discrimination and gender inequalities in Guinea-Bissau, demonstrating underlying root causes and their linkage to socio-cultural norms, the dominance of patriarchal power and of traditional (rural) settings. This report presents the baseline gender status in Guinea-Bissau and proposals for UNDP how to design tailored, country contextualized strategies for the upcoming UN Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) and new UNDP Country Programme Document (CPD) that can bring forward the promotion of gender equality and women’s empowerment in Guinea-Bissau.
