Wanaweza) Phase II promotes gender equality and the empowerment of women
as per UN Women’s global mandate and supports the Government of

international standards, providing suitable technical and financial

overarching goal/impact “Women lead and participate in decision-making
at all levels”. The project comprises two essential coordination

pandemic and includes three pillars: Public Health, Socio-Economic

framework was designed to secure a comprehensive overview of all related
activities within the UNDAP II structure, as well as coordinate
short-term and longer-term response and recovery efforts. To date this

Socio-Economic Response Framework (which is currently ongoing) and will
