Achieving gender parity requires a multi-faceted approach that analyzes the challenges and opportunities specific to each entity. While targets are important, gender parity is not just about numbers. UN Women has created the following resources to help you develop your implementation plan and make parity a reality. Please remember, every good implementation plan starts with accurate data, therefore please make sure to benefit from the UN Secretariat Gender Parity Dashboard and the UN System-wide Dashboard on Gender Parity.
