United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and Empowerment of Women (Panama)

UN Women operates in Latin America and the Caribbean through our regional office in Panama City, which supports country and multi-country offices spread across the region as well as countries where UN Women has a more limited programmatic presence.

UN Women is the United Nations entity dedicated to gender equality and the empowerment of women. A global champion for women and girls, UN Women was established to accelerate progress on meeting their needs worldwide.

UN Women supports UN Member States as they set global standards for achieving gender equality, and works with governments and civil society to design laws, policies, programmes and services needed to ensure that the standards are effectively implemented and truly benefit women and girls worldwide.
