To improve gender equality and reduce poverty in the region, the federal government has developed the development partners group on gender (dpgg), gender equality on women’s empowerment coordination strategic framework, 2023-2028, and the presidential high-level advisory council (Hlac).
Dame Pauline tallen, the minister of women’s affairs, said at the launch that the documents’ potential would be impossible without financial assistance since women are the backbone of the communities and the country’s economy.
“This strategy note and framework are a clear commitment from our development partners to fulfill a crucial accountability role and can improve the alignment and coordination of initiatives and actions taken in the interest of advancing gender equality and women’s empowerment in avoiding duplication of such efforts.
“Following today’s launch, all efforts committed to their development will not go in vain and be allowed to gather dust on the shelves but should get the necessary buy-in from all our partners,” she said.
