Gender mainstreaming is on going through ILO different activities (i.e Collaboration with UN family on SDG5 in addition to our work on promoting youth employment and inclusive social protection activities in the country)..In that context, it is planned to organize Seminar for trade unions on UN reform and unions’ role and mechanisms available to participate in the development of the UNSDCF and monitoring of its implementation as well as mentoring and capacity building on monitor the achievement of the targets set under the SDGs national action plan.

title:

A more deliberate approach to gender and non-discrimination. Gender and non-discrimination considerations should be mainstreamed in all ILO interventions and adapted to Azerbaijan’s context. This means not only using tools and methodological frameworks that incorporate gender but also sharing lessons learned and good practices from peer countries in the South-South development cooperation network. Programme outreach efforts should be targeted and tailored to women and persons with disabilities to encourage better uptake. Programmes in rural areas must be designed in a way that is considerate of the needs of women and persons with disabilities, like venue proximity or provision of transportation to the venue and back home, or making provisions for mothers with small children. Focus group discussion can be used for preliminary assessment to decide on the most appropriate ways to accommodate the needs of women and persons with disabilities to enable them to effectively participate and benefit from entrepreneurship promotion courses.
