Description

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. In Indonesia, UN Women works with government, civil society organizations (CSOs), academia, the media, the public and business sectors to address national priorities of gender equality and women’s empowerment. Placing the advancement of women’s rights at the centre of our work and aligning with UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) 2026-2030, UN Women Indonesia contributes to achieve two outcomes: (1) All people in Indonesia are able to equitably participate in and benefit from sustainable and quality services for enhanced wellbeing, and (2) All people in Indonesia are able to contribute to and benefit from productive, diversified and sustainable economic prosperity. One of the thematic programme of UN Women is the economic empowerment of women. The women economic empowerment programme of UN Women focuses on the achievement of gender equality through enabling women’s labour force participation, economic empowerment, and thus their full and equal participation in society. In 2010, UN Women and the UN Global Compact launched the Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs), which is a set of 7 principles that provide companies a roadmap to become more gender-responsive throughout their value chain. The WEPs is the only framework that encompasses gender equality at all organizational levels, beginning with leadership and providing guidance for the workplace, marketplace and community, underpinned by a strong emphasis on accountability and transparent reporting of progress. Under the current Strategic Note (2026–2030), UN Women Indonesia prioritizes Women’s Economic Empowerment in resilient, future-oriented economies, focusing on expanding women’s access to decent work, entrepreneurship, sustainable financing, and participation in the digital, care, and green & blue economies. The programme advances system-level change by strengthening institutional capacities, promoting gender-responsive care policies, scaling WEPs with over 200 private sector actors, and fostering multi-stakeholder platforms to drive responsible business conduct and inclusive economic transformation Based on the very strong foundation built through previous programme, with support from The Government of Australia’s Department of Foreign and Trade (DFAT), the UN Women’s Asia-Pacific launched Gender Action Lab (GAL) which aims to further advance business sector and government action to accelerate gender-responsive business policies and practices in Asia-Pacific by strengthening, in particular, implementation efforts to contribute to closing the business Sector and Government ‘Action Gap’ across the Asia and the Pacific, with a specific regional focus on ASEAN and especially in four priority countries, namely Indonesia, Philippines, and Malaysia and Cambodia. GAL aims to incorporate an inclusive and creative problem-solving methodology to enable multi-stakeholders and innovative thinking around specific thematic areas to ideate and prototype new multi-stakeholder solutions. The key outcome is that more companies in Asia - Pacific are implementing gender-responsive business practices and policies to enable more women to equitably lead and participate in the world of work.
