Goal 3: Promote gender equality and empower women

Equality between women and men is a worthy goal that is central to progress in human development. UNDP is committed to making gender equality a reality, not only because it is a moral imperative, but because it is a way to promote prosperity and well-being for all.

UNDP works on pro-women's policy advice, capacity development, and supports projects for gender equality in collaboration with UNIFEM.
