About the Gender Equality Seal

The UNDP Gender Equality Seal is a corporate certification process that recognizes the good performance of UNDP Country Offices in delivering transformational gender equality results. It looks at how interactions between different domains of gender mainstreaming can catalyse results both in the organization and development results. It generates a comprehensive snapshot of the competence, credibility and contribution of the concerned office to promoting gender equality.

The Seal is a global brand that aims to be recognized by government counterparts, civil society partners, donors and the public as a guarantee of UNDP’s commitment, expertise and effectiveness in protecting and advancing women's rights and gender equality.
 

UNDP Indonesia - Gold Gender Equality Seal
 

The Gender Equality Seal is a global brand adapted by UNDP to recognize its commitment, expertise, and effectiveness in protecting and advancing women's rights and gender equality. The certification covers several key areas, including eliminating gender-based pay gaps, enhancing work-life balance, increasing women’s roles in decision-making, eradicating sexual harassment at work, promoting women in business, and cross-cutting the gender perspective in value chains. 

In 2020, UNDP Indonesia became the first country office within the UN agency in the Asia-Pacific region to obtain the Gold Gender Equality Seal. The Gold Gender Equality Seal serves as a recognition to the country office’s efforts in mainstreaming gender equality in its programs and advancing gender equality goals in the country.
