A robust Gender Parity Strategy
In 2018, building on the United Nations Secretary-General’s System-Wide Gender Parity Strategy, the Department of Peace Operations developed a Uniformed Personnel Gender Parity Strategy with clear objectives, targets and benchmarks, along with reporting and monitoring mechanisms to achieve appropriate gender balance.
Under this strategy, by the year 2028, the UN Police Division is committed to recruiting at least 30% women police officers in professional positions in the field (20% in Formed Police Units and 30% as Individual Police Officers) and 35% at UN Headquarters. To achieve these goals, the UN Police Division will continue to engage Member States and seek the support of gender champion countries.
The UN Police Division will also continue to identify opportunities for women police officers in missions while ensuring that gender perspectives are mainstreamed in all policing activities and equal opportunities are afforded to women in police at all levels.
