Gender equality strategy
November 22, 2023
Gender equality is not just a fundamental human right, but a core value and necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous, and sustainable society. Women and girls remain disadvantaged and have limited access to rights or opportunities as men or
boys. UNDP, in its role as the SDGs’ integrator, is positioned to address gender inequality and promote women's empowerment. Gender equality and social inclusion is the primary commitment of UNDP, and aspiration in every initiative, project, and programme implemented and managed by UNDP. UNDP leverages partnerships with national and local stakeholders in all sectors to address gender inequality, gender-based violence, discrimination, stigma, and stereotypes in all development areas.
