Background: UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security. To complement this, UN Women is working to document women's priorities for peace and to build dialogue and trust across women's groups, women leaders, and women's rights actors operating inside and outside of Syria – seeking to create strategic alliances around key issues and processes that may shape the future of Syria. UN Women is providing a balanced gender analysis of the conflict. UN Women coordinates with other actors supporting gender equality and women's rights in Syria. This work is done within the programme entitled "Supporting Syrian Women's Engagement in the Syrian political process – Building a homegrown constituency for peace."
