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.
UN Women is implementing an initiative Asia funded by the EU, with the short title of the project: ‘PROTECT, Protection of the Rights of Women and Children in Labour Migration.’
Implemented through a partnership between the ILO, UN Women, UNODC and UNICEF, ‘PROTECT’ will address women migrant workers’ vulnerabilities to violence, trafficking and labour exploitation, with financial support of the European Union. It will include project implementation in select ASEAN countries with a focus on Cambodia and Thailand. The ‘PROTECT’ project contributes to making labour migration safer by addressing important gaps with respect to protecting the rights of women migrant workers to a life free from labour exploitation and violence. UN Women’s role is focused on ending violence against women, including women migrant workers, with attention to response, prevention, systems, policies and structures. The project is part of UN Women’s regional portfolio on ending violence against women and girls in Asia and the Pacific.
Reporting to and collaborating closely with the Ending Violence against Women (EVAW) Programme Manager in the Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific, the Programme Specialist exercises responsibility for planning, implementing, and ensuring quality assurance for UN Women interventions related to the ‘PROTECT’ project. The oversight for the PROTECT project is with the Ending Violence against Women Programme Manager.

Note:
In July 2010, the United Nations General Assembly created UN Women, the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality, and the Empowerment of Women. The creation of UN Women came about as part of the UN reform agenda, bringing together resources and mandates for greater impact. It merges and builds on the important work of four previously distinct parts of the UN system (DAW, OSAGI, INSTRAW, and UNIFEM), which focused exclusively on gender equality and women’s empowerment.
