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.
Economic empowerment is one of the priority areas of UN Women. Investing in women’s economic empowerment, including income security, decent work, and economic autonomy, sets the stage for greater gender equality, poverty eradication, and inclusive economic growth. Cognizant to this and aligned to the global, regional initiatives and country priorities, UN Women Ethiopia Country Office’s Women Economic Empowerment thematic priority in Ethiopia is devoted in creating opportunities for women/girls and their businesses by promoting and supporting enabling environments, institutional capacities and women’s access to and control over resources/services including technologies, financial and non-financial services, and access to decent jobs among others. UN Women works with different government sectors and development partners to promote women’s economic empowerment and increase their access to economic opportunities and outcomes, especially for those who are most excluded, including women migrant workers. And as the blueprint for the governance and coordination of international migration, it is critical that gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls are central in its implementation. UN Women works to help ensure that migrant women’s human and labour rights are effectively promoted and protected at all stages of migration, and that the implementation of the Global Compact for Migration is human rights -based and gender- responsive.
Under Women’s Economic Empowerment Programme Portfolio, since 2023 UN Women Ethiopia office has been implementing the global Germany-funded Making Migration Safe for Women programme in with the goal of ensuring that international norms and standards for protecting and promoting migrant women’s rights are strengthened and the development and implementation of national migration policies and laws are gender-responsive.
