2022, for UN Women APAC
2022, for UN Women APAC
The ASEAN Policy Brief includes a summary of major issues around Women’s Economic Empowerment in ASEAN, presents how the UN Women’s WEPs can provide a useful framework for both the public and private sector to address these issues, and discusses the specific role ASEAN can take in leading real progress on women’s empowerment and gender equality.
This ASEAN Policy Action Brief is evidence-based and data-driven, leveraging the ASEAN-UN Women Ecosystem Landscaping Report and the ASEAN Gender Outlook 2021. It reflects strategies that are relevant both for each ASEAN Member State and their policymakers and regulators, and for ASEAN as a regional body and builds on the well-established framework of the WEPs.
