Historique
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. Placing women’s rights at the center 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 -Country Office - Morocco is based in Rabat, Morocco. UN Women Morocco focuses its activities on 3 areas of intervention: 1. Women Political Participation (WPP) and Gender-Responsive Public Governance; 2. Women Economic Empowerment (WEE) and Access to Decent and Stable Income; 3. Ending Violence Against Women and Girls (EVAWG).
In the area of Gender-Responsive Public Governance, UN Women Morocco works across aspects of governance that can most readily accelerate progress towards gender equality. We help bridge disconnects between national development strategies and gender equality plans. To reform public institutions, we support steps such as cultivating the capacities of public officials to integrate gender equality measures in plans and budgets and select performance indicators for oversight. We advocate transparent and adequate public financing for gender equality, including through the adoption of gender-responsive budgets that channel adequate resources to both women and men. Since the early 2000s, Morocco has been engaged in a process of implementing Gender Responsive Budgeting (GRB). This process was marked by the creation in 2013 of the Centre of Excellence for GRB, a platform for coordinating the general implementation of GRB through training, support for stakeholders and the production of knowledge and tools in the field of GRB.
The adoption in 2015 of the new Organic Law relating to the Finance Law (LOF) has allowed the institutionalization of GRB in Morocco. This law provides a legal basis for taking gender equality into account throughout the budget programming process and in the monitoring and evaluation phases of public programmes. It also institutionalises the production of a Gender Budget Report each year, which accompanies the draft Finance Law to Parliament.
UN Women Country Office Morocco is looking for an intern for a 6-month period to support the Gender Responsive Planning and Budgeting Programme.

Note: In July 2010, the United Nations General Assembly created UN Women, the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women. The creation of UN Women came about as part of the UN reform agenda, bringing together resources and mandates for greater impact. It merges and builds on the important work of four previously distinct parts of the UN system (DAW, OSAGI, INSTRAW and UNIFEM), which focused exclusively on gender equality and women's empowerment.
