Mission and objectivesUnited Nations Development Programme (UNDP), a key UN member since 1945 and active in Iraq since 1976, is dedicated to aiding the country's transition to stability and reform. Aligned with the government's vision, UNDP strives for a resilient Iraq by addressing social, economic, environmental, and political challenges. One of its primary goals is to fortify institutions, ensuring they provide inclusive, evidence-based, and gender-responsive services, with a focus on vulnerable populations. This involves promoting transparent, accountable governance to safeguard the rights of marginalized groups and foster citizen trust in the state. The Support to Justice Initiatives curbing Corruption and promoting Commercial Dispute Resolution (ACAI) project, part of the governance portfolio, aims to combat corruption and advance commercial dispute resolution in Iraq. It has five key outcomes: refining the legal and strategic framework for anti-corruption, boosting the capabilities of the justice sector to handle corruption cases, strengthening legislation and institutions for commercial dispute resolution, garnering parliamentary support for anti-corruption reforms, and enhancing transparency and public accountability. The Trial Monitoring (TM) Programme, falling under output 2, specifically focuses on monitoring high-level corruption cases in Iraq's specialized courts.
ContextThe Evaluation Report on Women‑Led Civil Society Organizations and Women Human‑ & Environmental‑Rights Defenders in Iraq offers the first nation‑wide assessment of women‑headed CSOs that champion women’s rights and environmental human rights. The report maps their geographic spread, capacities, partnerships, and impact; identifies gaps in funding, governance, and digital security; and analyses emerging challenges such as hate‑speech, cyber‑violence, and climate‑related risks. It concludes with actionable recommendations for government, donors, and UN partners to strengthen these organizations’ role in advancing SDG 5 (Gender Equality) and SDG 13 (Climate Action). The online volunteer will design the Arabic edition of this report, transforming dense evaluation findings into a clear, accessible, and visually compelling publication that adheres to UNDP branding. The final product will serve as a key advocacy and knowledge‑sharing tool for Iraqi authorities, international partners, women‑led networks, and development donors.
