Background |
||||||||||||||
Over the past 30 years of independence, the Kyrgyz Republic has committed to fulfill international obligations under approved conventions and treaties. The country periodically reports on these international commitments at UN meetings and receives recommendations which it is committed to implement. As a member of the UN, the country also reports annually on the implementation of the SDGs. Over the past few years, the country has experienced several political upheavals that have led to changes in power and reforms in legislation, public policy, systems and institutions, programmes and directions for development. Between 2020 and 2022, the government initiated a full-scale legislative inventory (over 350 laws have been revised) and administrative reform. These innovations have created uncertainty in the gender machinery, functions previously responsible for gender issues, and new structures and mandates. In light of the above reforms, the assessment of all country commitments was carried out utilizing harmonized approach. This resulted in comprehensive matrix structured according to the thematic areas of the Beijing Platform for Action and the SDG indicators and entailing recommendations from the last 2 periodic reports. Based on initial drafts two consultations were organized with members of inter-governmental working group and finalized taking into account their inputs and recommendations. To further provide technical support to Government and key national partners on integration of harmonized approach into respective policies an plan, UN Women is recruiting a national consultant who would build upon above processes and provide expert and facilitation assistance.
