 1. Review of management and administration in the United Nations Entity for
    Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN-Women) – JIU/REP/2024/1


REVIEW OF MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION IN THE UNITED NATIONS ENTITY FOR GENDER
EQUALITY AND THE EMPOWERMENT OF WOMEN (UN-WOMEN) – JIU/REP/2024/1

The Joint Inspection Unit is pleased to announce the release of its report on
management and administration in the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality
and the Empowerment of Women (UN-Women), prepared by Inspectors Toshiya Hoshino
and Mohanad Al-Musawi.

UN-Women started its activities in 2011, with unique characteristics in terms of
its genesis, mandate composition and governance structure within the United
Nations system. Over the past decade, UN-Women has undergone significant growth
in terms of its financial resources and expenditure, as well as the size of its
workforce, thereby “graduating” to a medium sized organization. That evolution
has been accompanied by several organizational restructuring reforms and a
large-scale business transformation initiatives as UN-Women further engaged in
the repositioning of the United Nations development system. In its second decade
of existence, UN-Women has aspired to transform into UN-Women 2.0. In that
regard, UN-Women is looking to implement one of its most important internal
reforms since its establishment, namely the pivot to the field initiative, to
bring the Entity closer to the women and girls whom it serves.

While the Inspectors have reviewed the evolution of the organization mainly over
the past five years, some issues, originating pre-2010 within the earlier four
gender-related entities, were also covered.

The report contains nine (9) formal recommendations: five (5) are directed to
the Executive-Director and four (4) are addressed to the Executive Board. Formal
recommendations tackle areas such as governance, executive management,
accountability and internal control, financial resources, knowledge management
and human resources management. These formal recommendations are complemented by
a series of informal recommendations which are additional suggestions for
improvements that have not been made formal to avoid overburdening the
organization, although their implementation could also contribute to further
improving the overall management framework of the Entity and strengthening its
internal processes.

The JIU also issued a Supplementary Paper containing additional observations
pertaining to each of the areas mandated to the Entity by the General Assembly
founding resolution 64/289, namely UN-Women tripartite mandate of normative,
operational and coordination.
