Background
The Policy
Division brings together technical experts who: undertake issues-based
research; analyze data on country, regional and global trends; build a
knowledge base on policy commitments and their implementation; propose evidence-based
options for global policy, norms and standards and for UN Women global
programme strategies; and contribute substantive inputs to policy advocacy and
technical cooperation programmes. The work of UN Women's Ending Violence
against Women (EVAW) Section is broadly focused on a comprehensive approach to
ending violence against women that addresses legislation and policies,
prevention, services for survivors, research, and data.
The Ending
Violence Against Women (EVAW) Section is responsible for several functions
including supporting the normative work on EVAW at the global level, developing
and managing global level programmes and providing policy and technical advice
to regional and country offices on EVAW.
The EVAW
Section is supporting various UN Women country and regional programmes on EVAW,
which aim at addressing all forms of violence against women and girls. These
programmes aim to support transformative change on the ground to end violence
against women and girls, in numerous countries globally. The EVAW Section works
to ensure coherence, alignment, and strong technical quality of these large
programmes, in line with regional/country context.
2020 was a
milestone year for gender equality. It marked the 25th anniversary of the
Fourth World Conference on Women and the adoption of the Beijing Declaration
and Platform for Action (1995) (Beijing+25), the 20th anniversary of UN
Security Council resolution 1325 on Women and Peace and Security, and the 5th
anniversary of the adoption of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
Action
Coalitions reflect a core objective of the Generation Equality Forum: to
achieve tangible results on gender equality during the UN Decade of Action
(2020-2030) to deliver the Sustainable Development Goals. The Action Coalition
on Gender-Based Violence is one of the outcomes of the Generation Equality
Forum. Along with five other Action Coalitions the Action Coalition on
Gender-Based Violence will advance game changing results in the lives of women
and girls in line with the Global Acceleration Plan for Gender Equality and
related commitments made by Action Coalition Leaders and commitment makers.
The
Generation Equality Forum which took place in Paris in the summer of 2021 was a
landmark moment for gender equality with 1000+ Commitment Makers making
commitments to the six themes of the Action Coalitions on gender-based
violence. Including 1000+ commitments to the Action Coalition on gender-based
violence.
