Context

UN Women, based on the vision of equality enshrined in the United Nations Charter, works towards 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, peace, and security.
Since 2013, the UN Women Office in Bolivia has been established as a country office with the objective of strengthening its presence to adequately respond to the challenges that the country faces in women's empowerment and the advancement of their rights. UN Women is the United Nations organization dedicated to promoting gender equality and the empowerment of women. As a global advocate for women and girls, UN Women was established to accelerate progress that will lead to improved living conditions for women and to address the needs they face worldwide.
UN Women Bolivia supports women's economic empowerment based on international commitments such as the Beijing Platform for Action, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women and the 2030 Agenda, particularly Sustainable Development Goals 5 and 8. UN Women also builds on the growing evidence that gender equality contributes significantly to boosting economies and sustainable development. In this context, UN Women is initiating the implementation of a project, “Strengthening of Productive Units led by Women with a Gender approach in Bolivia” funded by KOICA that aims to 1) Enhancing the business capabilities of the vulnerable women in Bolivia; and 2) Improving women's rights through the improvement of unequal domestic labor.
