Operational guidance on integrating girls' empowerment in activities with adolescents
Highlights
The Operational Guidance results from a joint effort between the Ministry of Youth, Sports, Art and Culture (MoYSAC) and UNICEF Timor-Leste. This collaboration aimed to tackle the prevailing gender inequitable social norms in Timor-Leste.
The operational Guidance presents practical steps that can be easily integrated into activities involving adolescents. These steps are designed to promote gender equality and empower women and girls to ensure that the voices of adolescent girls in Timor-Leste are informed, engaged, and able to influence decisions and matters that affect their lives.
The document provides practical, context-specific advice to support MoYSAC, other relevant Ministries, and development and implementing partners, including UN agencies, in promoting gender equality and empowering young women and girls.
