Background:

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 work of UN Women in Moldova is guided by its Country Strategic Note 2023-2027, aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework for Moldova (2023-2027), UN Women Global Strategic Plan, National Programs and Strategies and aims to contribute to the gender-responsive implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The Strategic Note focuses on four main areas: 1) Ending Violence against Women (EVAW); 2) Women’s Leadership and Governance; 3) Women’s Economic Empowerment; and 4) Humanitarian and Peace development nexus and UN Coordination on gender equality and women empowerment.

Women and girls constitute more than half of Moldova’s population, yet they are under-represented in the bodies that make key decisions affecting their lives. Gender inequalities continue to persist in all areas of public and private life, while important progress has been recorded in the Republic of Moldova over the past 10 years.

The overarching vision of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is inclusive and sustainable growth with its promise to leave no one behind. Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 5, target 5.5. calls to “ensure women’s full and effective participation and equal opportunities for leadership at all levels of the decision-making in political, economic and public life”. Gender equality by 2030 requires urgent action to eliminate the many root causes of discrimination that still curtail women’s rights in private and public spheres.  

The Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, adopted in 1995, explicitly calls for the removal of all barriers that prevent women's full and equal participation in political life. In October 2024, the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women adopted General Recommendation No. 40 on the equal and inclusive representation of women in decision-making systems. The Recommendation provides comprehensive guidance to States parties on achieving equal and inclusive representation of women across all decision-making systems and sectors, with the aim of driving systemic and transformative change.

Women in politics and in decision making still confront stereotypes. According to the latest studies conducted by UN Women partners, it shows that patriarchal conceptions persist among a significant portion of the population. Gender stereotypes about women’s roles remain deeply rooted and have even intensified in recent years. The share of people who believe women have “no place in politics” rose from 18.2% in 2021 to 26.2% in 2025, while around 20% still consider women less capable of leadership roles. At the same time, traditional views about women’s primary role in family life have significantly increased, rising from 47.9% to 62.4%.

UN Women, in line with its mandate, supports women parliamentarians, women from government, mayors, councillors, and other women leaders, including those from underrepresented groups, as a long-term investment in building inclusive and representative societies. This is achieved through capacity-building programmes, networking opportunities, inspirational events, and studies that encourage diverse women to participate in public life and decision-making, while strengthening their confidence, leadership skills, and campaign strategies.    

Over the years, UN Women has supported various platforms of women leaders at both central and local levels, including the Women MPs Caucus (across the last 3 legislatures), the Women Mayors Network, and the Women in Governance network (LiderELE programme), etc. These initiatives aim to equip, support, and inspire women leaders by providing them with the necessary tools to manage pressures, foster social innovation, and promote excellence in governance, while strengthening women’s active participation in decision-making processes, becoming agents of change, especially in the context of EU integration.

In order to equip actual women legislators from senior and middle-level government positions, women MPs, and women mayors with the necessary skills, knowledge, and confidence to succeed in their roles to effectively serve as change-makers in their legislative and representation functions, to provide tools to mainstream gender-sensitive culture in legislatures and society, UN Women Moldova Country Office will initiate an Academy for Women in Public Leadership. The Academy will represent a national platform to strengthen women’s leadership across the public leadership pipeline and will combine cohort-based learning, leadership labs, mentoring and coaching, peer learning circles, and an alumni network that ensures sustainability beyond a single cycle. 

In this context, UN Women Moldova will engage a team of international and national experts in various fields to deliver tailored trainings for up to 300 women from central and local administrations in accordance with TOR requirements. The relevant topics will be linked to transformative leadership, strategic communication, social media, public speaking, mediation/conflict resolution, crisis management and safe Leadership in politics, gender-responsive policy-making, resilience, wellbeing, individual coaching and not limited to.

These initiatives are planned under joint efforts from 3 ongoing projects: the regional project “Women’s Increased Leadership for Resilient and Peaceful Societies” funded by Denmark; the project “Enhancing Peace and Prosperity through Women’s Leadership and Inclusion (Women for Peace and Prosperity)” funded by Switzerland; and UN Women Strategic Note Contribution funded by Sweden.

Background:

The United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the empowerment of Women (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. 

Placing women’s rights at the center of all its efforts, UN Women leads and coordinates United Nations system efforts to ensure that commitments on gender equality and gender mainstreaming translate into action throughout the world. It provides strong and coherent leadership in support of Member States’ priorities and efforts, building effective partnerships with civil society and other relevant actors.

In Viet Nam, UN Women contributes to the development objectives of Viet Nam’s Socio-Economic Development Plan and the National Strategy for Gender Equality. Its Country Strategy Note for 2022-2026 is aligned to the upcoming UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (CF) 2022-2026 and is focused on supporting Viet Nam’s fulfilment of Gender Equality commitments under The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), and the promise of the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda to “leave no one behind”. The key priorities of UN Women in the 2022-2026 period are: 

1. By 2026, people in Viet Nam, especially those at risk of being left behind, will benefit from and contribute to safer and cleaner environment resulting from Viet Nam’s effective and gender responsive mitigation and adaptation to climate change, disaster risk reduction and resilience building, promotion of circular economy, the provision of clean and renewable energy, and the sustainable management of natural resources. 
2. By 2026, people in Viet Nam, especially those at risk of being left behind, will contribute to and benefit equitably from more sustainable, inclusive and gender-responsive economic transformation based on innovation, entrepreneurship, enhanced productivity, competitiveness, and decent work; 
3. By 2026, people in Viet Nam, especially those at risk of being left behind, will have benefited from and have contributed to a more just, safe and inclusive society based on improved governance, more responsive institutions, strengthened rule of law and the protection of and respect for human rights, gender equality, and freedom from all forms of violence and discrimination in line with international standards. 

Technology-facilitated gender-based violence (TFGBV) is an increasingly urgent challenge in the context of rapid digital transformation. Globally, 38% of women with internet access have experienced online violence, while studies in Asia and the Pacific show that between 16% and 58% of women have encountered technology-facilitated abuse. In Viet Nam, 23% of internet-using children have reported exposure to sexual content online, underscoring the growing risks and evolving forms of violence in digital spaces.

TFGBV encompasses a range of harmful acts, including online harassment, cyberstalking, image-based abuse, and emerging threats associated with the misuse of artificial intelligence and digital technologies. These forms of violence are deeply connected to broader patterns of gender inequality and violence against women and girls, requiring coordinated, survivor-centred, and gender-responsive responses from law enforcement and other service providers.

Recognizing the critical role of the police in preventing and responding to TFGBV, the Ministry of Public Security (MPS), in partnership with UN Women under the DFAT-funded EVAWC Programme, has strengthened the capacity of police officers through training on gender-responsive policing (GRP). In 2025, 100 police officers participated in training programmes aimed at enhancing their understanding of survivor-centred approaches to responding to TFGBV cases.

To support institutional learning and promote good practices, MPS and UN Women subsequently developed two communication videos highlighting key principles and practical experiences of gender-responsive policing in addressing TFGBV. The videos which were launched in June 2026 serve as awareness-raising and introductory learning tools and were officially launched to promote wider understanding of TFGBV and the importance of gender-responsive responses within the police system and among the public.

Building on the momentum generated by the video launch, MPS and UN Women will develop a practical Handbook on Gender-Responsive Policing in Addressing Technology-Facilitated Gender-Based Violence. The handbook will translate the concepts and messages presented in the videos into concrete operational guidance, tools, and procedures for frontline police officers. It will provide practical recommendations on identification, reporting, investigation, referral, survivor support, evidence collection, and inter-agency coordination when handling TFGBV cases, while ensuring gender-sensitive and survivor-centred approaches.

To facilitate the effective application of the handbook, two training workshops will be organized for frontline police officers and relevant stakeholders within MPS networks. These workshops will introduce the handbook, strengthen practical skills, and provide opportunities to apply the tools through case studies and interactive exercises. Together, the videos, handbook, and trainings form a comprehensive package of learning and capacity-building resources that will support the institutionalization of gender-responsive policing practices across the police system.

UN Women, therefore, is seeking for a national consultant to work with MPS to develop handbook on gender-responsive policing to address TFGBV and to deliver two training workshops in Dien Bien and Da Nang for frontline police officers.

Scope of Work
