Background

UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security.

One of the key areas of UN Women work in Ukraine is implementation of the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda. UN Women supported Ministry of Social Policy (MoSP) of Ukraine with development of the second National Action Plan 1325 (NAP) for Implementation of UN Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1325 on Women, Peace and Security for 2021-2025. NAP 1325 was revised on 16 December 2022 to reflect the new war related challenges. UN Women is committed to provide technical support with development of tools and capacity of the staff of the all-line Ministries to implement and localize their WPS commitments.

To support the consolidated efforts of the Parliament, Government, women’s groups and civil society organizations (CSOs) to meet the state commitments on gender equality and women’s rights, including United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1325, Convention on Elimination of All Forms of Violence Against Women (CEDAW) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), through governance reforms and security processes, UN Women has been working in enhancing gender responsive security sector reform and localization of NAP 1325 aiming at women’s to meaningfully participate in and equally benefit from security processes at all levels in Ukraine.

The overarching goal of the UN Women’s support to the Government of Ukraine is to ensure that women, particularly the most vulnerable, equally benefit from the law enforcement reforms in Ukraine.
