Mission and objectives
UN Women is the United Nations entity dedicated to gender equality and the empowerment of women. A global champion for women and girls, UN Women was established to accelerate progress on meeting their needs worldwide.

UN Women supports UN Member States as they set global standards for achieving gender equality, and works with governments and civil society to design laws, policies, programmes and services needed to ensure that the standards are effectively implemented and truly benefit women and girls worldwide. It works globally to make the vision of the Sustainable Development Goals a reality for women and girls and stands behind women’s equal participation in all aspects of life, focusing on four strategic priorities:

– Women lead, participate in and benefit equally from governance systems
– Women have income security, decent work and economic autonomy
– All women and girls live a life free from all forms of violence
– Women and girls contribute to and have greater influence in building sustainable peace and resilience, and benefit equally from the prevention of natural disasters and conflicts and humanitarian action

UN Women also coordinates and promotes the UN system’s work in advancing gender equality, and in all deliberations and agreements linked to the 2030 Agenda. The entity works to position gender equality as fundamental to the Sustainable Development Goals, and a more inclusive world.

Context
UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security.

The project’s primary objective is to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the situation, needs, and vulnerabilities of internally displaced women and girls from Murzuq and Tawergha, the largest populations of internally displaced persons (IDPs) currently in Libya. Through a mixed-methods approach, including surveys, interviews, and focus group discussions, the project aims to gather essential data for tailored interventions that will contribute to achieve durable solutions for women and girls IDPs, including through the outcomes of PBF’s project. The project also aims at assessing the effectiveness of policies and programme and share recommendations for future evidence-based interventions.
In light of the above, UN Women will conduct an assessment of the situation of women and girls IDPs from Murzuq and Tawergha. Through the assessment, UN Women aims at generating a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by women and girls in the context of internal displacement. The assessment will also shed light on interventions by local authorities, UN programmes (i.e.PBF and possible new interventions) that can be tailored to address the most pertinent needs for women and girls IDPs with special regard to economic recovery, livelihoods resilience, and any other displacement-related need in order to ensure their full enjoyment of human rights.

The evaluation will also highlight interventions by local authorities and UN programs (i.e. the Peacebuilding Fund, Budget and potential new interventions) that can be adapted to meet the most relevant needs of internally displaced women and girls with particular attention to economic recovery, livelihood resilience, and any other related needs. displacement in order to ensure their full enjoyment of human rights.
