ABOUT : 

UNDP partners with people at all levels of society to help build nations that can withstand crisis, and drive and sustain the kind of growth that improves the quality of life for everyone. For UNDP, creating equal opportunities for women and men is critical for equitable, sustainable development and prosperity. Hence, gender equality is in core of the UNDP mandate globally and nationally. UNDP Armenia, within the past decade, has continuously implemented projects on women empowerment, gender equality and youth leadership in Armenia. At the same time, the local context also presents several challenges to the goal of participation, empowerment and gender equality. Various research point at political, socio-economic and cultural factors, which limit women participation, such as: insufficient mechanisms and regulations to advance gender equality at the national and local level; insufficient promotion of women within/by political parties; narrow gender identities; lack of female leadership culture and support networks; power distance; lack of confidence and skills among women; etc. All these factors limit opportunities for building a critical mass of female cadre in national and local governance. Overall, the legal framework for women political involvement is not fully conducive and additional mechanisms and affirmative actions are needed for realization of women’s rights. Developing specific mechanisms and actions has become an imperative in the context of the current COVID-19 pandemics, escalation of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict into a full-fledged war and significant human losses predominantly among men. This situation clearly pointed to the need to have competent and skilled women at all levels of governance and the public administration, who can enter leadership roles in stable times, but also can undertake additional duties and roles in times of crisis. In addition, engaging women at all levels of decision-making becomes a priority for ensuring, among others, full and smooth operation of the administrative machinery. To that end, UNDP Gender Equality in Public Administration of Armenia (GEPAA), with overall contributing goal to SDG 5 and SDG 16, adjusts its activities to the emerging needs. As per agreement with the RA Deputy Prime Minister’s office the project, among others, will support the RA government in the following activities: a) changing public perception about the role of women in the public administration; b) involving new qualified female cadre to all levels of public administration, with special focus on the decision-making positions; c) retaining and promoting current female staff within the public sector. The GEPAA project is currently seeking a qualified Expert to assist the RA Government in the above-mentioned areas.
