The project will promote a gender-sensitive refugee response at the regional and country levels by advancing gender-sensitive programming, financing and coordination within and across UN agencies, regional inter-governmental bodies and refugee-response structures. It will accomplish this goal by addressing the gender-specific impacts of Ukraine’s humanitarian and refugee crisis while simultaneously ensuring that women and those at risk have strengthened access to protection services and resources.

The purpose of this checklist is to provide humanitarian/refugee response actors in the Republic of Moldova with entry points/tips on how to ensure that the needs, priorities and capacities of women, girls, men and boys are considered in all aspects of humanitarian/refugee response.

Based on preliminary data collection (a series of UN Women surveys) and meetings that UN Women had with women-led organizations in Moldova, the ongoing crisis is creating and exacerbating gender-specific risks and vulnerabilities and is resulting in higher scale of humanitarian needs among women, girls, men and boys.

This report presents a summary of displacement survey findings commissioned by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in partnership with UN Women. Data were collected before crossing to Ukraine at three main border crossing points (BCPs) – Palanca and Tudora (Stefan Voda district in the South) and Otaci (Ocnita district in the North) between 16 April and 27 May.

This is the third fact sheet that summarizes the results of displacement surveys initiated by IOM in partnership with UN Women to assess the needs and vulnerabilities of refugees and third-countries nationals fleeing into the Republic of Moldova from Ukraine. This report presents an analysis based on the 9,978 interviews conducted between 9 March and 22 April 2022.

This report is based on a survey of displacement patterns, needs and intentions commissioned by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in partnership with UN Women.

This factsheet provides up-to-date data about the demographic profiles of refugees from Ukraine hosted by the Republic of Moldova.

The study ”Services provided to migrant women, especially to returnee women, and the creation of a dialogue platform for migrant women” revealed the following:- Returnees are not acquainted with services available neither how to access them;- Local public authorities and non-governmental organizations are not really acquainted with other services provided at the local level besides their services.

Gender responsive budgeting (GRB) means gender mainstreaming in the budget process, which involves regular assessment and analysis of the budget impact on women and men, corroborated by the analysis and adjustment of relevant policies to reduce gender disparities. This type of budgeting promotes greater accountability on the performance of governments in using public resources by purpose in correlation with the needs of beneficiaries, women and men, girls and boys, and applies the gender mainstreaming in all public policies in accordance with international treaties and national development strategies.

The purpose of the profiles is to inform the public, based on evidences/data, about the advantages, capacities and potential that belong to the analyzed groups of women and the contribution they can make to the development, their environments of interaction, the opportunities they benefit from or which they lack, the limitations and the obstacles they face.

This brief provides guidance on the elaboration of policies, including the effects of migration, on development strategies from gender perspective, and is intended for professionals responsible for implementing diaspora policies in ministries and other central administrative authorities (migration focal points, technical level) concerned by this problem.
