UN ESCWA Program

UN ESCWA Gender Statistics Guide – Organization

ESCWA aims to help member states use their shared language, culture, and aspirations to tackle transboundary challenges and achieve sustainable development. They launched a digital training program to challenge gender stereotypes and promote women’s empowerment across Middle Eastern societies. The platform was designed to educate and sensitize communities on the importance of women’s roles in leadership, governance, and non-traditional professions that are often underrepresented in the region’s male-dominated culture.

The challenge was to build an intuitive interface that could both deliver educational content and evaluate users’ understanding through interactive assessments. The ultimate goal is to equip participants with the knowledge and confidence to apply this awareness within their organizations and communities.

The result was a training platform that not only informed but also tested and reinforced cultural change, thereby accelerating women’s integration into leadership and societal roles.
