3 PRC/2(3-) Page 1 I. INTRODUCTION 1. The African Union Assembly of Heads of State and Government, during the 23rd Ordinary Session, held from 26 to 27 June 2014 in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea, declared as the Year of Women Empowerment and Development towards Africa s Agenda 2063, marking the 20 th Anniversary of the adoption of the Beijing Declaration and its Platform for Action (1995) and the 5 th Anniversary of the African Women s Decade ( ) 2. After several years considering gender mainstreaming not as much more than a moral obligation, African countries made commitments to address gender equality based on international frameworks, including the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) in 1979, Beijing Platform for Action (BPFA) in 1995, Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in 2000, and United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 in 2000 among others. 3. As a continental player in promoting sustainable and equitable development, the African Union has been undertaking, by its own and in tandem with the international community and the Regional Economic Communities (RECs) and national institutions, diverse activities targeting gender mainstreaming. It took a more concrete step in 2003 with the adoption of the Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights on the Rights of Women in Africa, the adoption of the Solemn Declaration on Gender Equality in Africa in 2004, the AU Gender Policy adopted in 2009, the African Women s Decade and the Fund for African Women, both adopted in As part of its efforts to fulfill this mandate, the AUC created a Women Gender and Development Directorate () under the Office of the Chairperson. is tasked to catalyze gender mainstreaming and empowering of women as a collaborative investment through institutional capacity building with AU Members State, RECs, AU Organs, AUC Departments, Gender machineries and Partners. 5. Given the dynamic nature of gender relations and taking into account existing and emerging social, economic, political and cultural concerns that have direct and indirect impact on gender and social development, the African Union has embarked upon reviewing and assessing its existing Gender Policies and Strategies. The updated Policy Framework and Plan of Action will take stock of achievements, challenges and opportunities within Member States and at regional levels, to identify priority action areas focusing on practical solutions that are catalytic and transformational and setting the context for benchmarking Africa and comparing to other regions of the world. II. RATIONALE 6. Studies have shown that women constitute about half of Africa s poor by income and other measures related to GDP and social accounting. Women play critical
4 PRC/2(3-) Page 2 productive roles that directly impact Africa s developmental opportunities, but those activities are un-accounted. Moreover, they face Gender-specific constraints faced by Africa s women, notably limited access and control to the productive resources and have critical implications for broad-based, socio- economic development in Africa. 7. Since the Fourth World Conference on Women Beijing, China in 1995, empowerment of women and specific attention to the girl child, have emerged as important factors in sustainable and accelerated development in developing countries. There is now full universal recognition that mainstreaming and increasing the role of women in the development process is essential to propelling economic growth rates to levels that support stability and broad-based expanded opportunities for current and future generations. 8. Addressing persistent and ever increasing burden of poverty on women is pivotal to the Beijing Platform for Action as a basis for broad-based, economic transformation. It is also recognized as a causative lever as a cross-cutting issue to achieve the Africa Union s Malabo Declaration on Accelerated Agricultural Growth and Transformation for Shared Prosperity and Improved Livelihoods that is shaped by seven goals (3ATGs) and MDGs. 9. Adoption of the Solemn Declaration on Gender Equality in Africa (SDGEA) by AU Heads of State in 2004 is the landmark commitment by Africa s leaders to report on progress made in gender mainstreaming. Further, the AU created the Fund for African Women (FAW) in 2010, with the intention of directly supporting and enhancing women s participation in the economic process as well as increasing African women s participation in economic decision making. 10. Key to operationalizing African leadership commitment to empowering women and promote gender equality, the African Women Decade (AWD) was adopted in 2009 with the overall theme: Grassroots Approach to Gender Equality and Women s Empowerment (GEWE). 11. The declaration of the year on a theme devoted exclusively to women's empowerment and development in Africa for the implementation of the Agenda 2063, reflects priority questions for Africa such as: a. What opportunities are presented by both the Africa Agenda 2063 and the Common African Position on Post- Development Agenda, for women s empowerment and gender equality in Africa? b. How can women s contributions towards achieving the Africa Agenda 2063 vision and goals and existing declarations that are being operationalized to accountably integrate Africa, be formalized and accelerated? c. What strategies of information, communication, legislation underpinned advocacy and awareness will the AU establish to allow African women co-own the successes of AU Agenda 2063?
5 II. OBJECTIVES PRC/2(3-) Page 3 The overarching objective of the Year of Women Empowerment is to define strategic actions to fully support women capacity building and access to resources in order to ensure their full participation to political and economic decision making.
