Monitoring, Evaluation and Reporting Officer, Women Peace and Security Programme (For Nationals of Philippines Only)

UNDP

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. 

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. Placing women’s rights at the centre of all its efforts, UN Women leads and coordinates United Nations system efforts to ensure that commitments on gender equality and gender mainstreaming translate into action throughout the world. It provides strong and coherent leadership in support of Member States’ priorities and efforts, building effective partnerships with civil society and other relevant actors.

UN Women, through its Women, Peace and Security Team in Cotabato City, manages the Women Peace and Humanitarian Fund (WPHF) that works with CSO partners in conflict impacted communities all over the country. It is also implementing the Empowering women for sustainable peace in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) together with UNDP. These programme recognize that gender-related vulnerabilities and violence, pandemics, climate change, and electoral transitions challenge to the peace and stability of the BARMM and its surrounding areas by straining efforts to reintegrate former combatants, driving up competition for scarce resources in localities with historical tension, and shifting institutional focus away from building inclusive policies during the formative stage of the region’s new administrative apparatus. These programme seek to contribute to the Normalization agenda of the BARMM government. They are designed to prevent insecurity and violence by harnessing the potentials of both women and men and addressing structural gender inequality and discriminatory gender norms that are the barriers to sustainable peace.

In 2023, UN Women supported the development and launch of the National Action Plan on Peace on Women Peace and Security (2023-2033) and the BARMM Regional Action Plan on Women Peace and Security (2023-2027). From 2024, UN Women will\ focuses on the localization of the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda in BARMM and other conflict areas of the countries, with the assumption that peace is inextricably linked to equality between women and men. Empowering women to engage in peacebuilding within communities affected by conflict is critical to creating and sustaining peace in BARMM and the country’s other conflict zones. The Philippine NAP WPS and BARMM RAP WPS BARMM provide a clear entry point to translate commitment into concrete plans back with resource allocation in the coming years. As we implement these, the UN Women seek to enhance the role of the Filipino and Bangsamoro women in the implementation of the peace agreement, in conflict transformation and the protection of their human rights in conflict and post-conflict settings.
