This paper offers analysis and recommendations for building a more inclusive justice system, drawing on results of a needs assessment study carried out by ODIHR in 2017. The study, which relied on both desk-based research and the collection of field data, was structured around two separate but interlinked themes: a) gender and diversity among justice system actors, in terms of recruitment and selection of a diverse workforce and ensuring workplace equality; and b) the effects of gender and diversity among justice system actors on the fairness of outcomes, as perceived by end users of justice systems. This paper outlines specific challenges identified by the needs assessment study and highlights some of the good practice solutions used to address them.

It is clear that the pandemic has differently impacted women and men around the globe, restricting their economic empowerment and deepening gender inequality and genderbased violence. This is first of all due to the loss of income sources, including among women entrepreneurs who traditionally work in service industries, higher risks for women working in healthcare, social protection and education systems, and increased domestic workloads as a result of self-isolation. In Kyrgyzstan, this situation has its own specifics due to the country’s geographic location and economic dependence on the neighboring countries related to high labor outmigration. The results of GRA in Kyrgyzstan show that women, particularly from vulnerable groups facing multiple discrimination, have suffered more from the crisis than men.

This DCAF, OSCE/ODIHR, UN Women Gender and Security Toolkit draws together the key lessons of the past decade in promoting gender equality in security and justice. The aim of the Toolkit is to share new and emerging good practices, reflecting on how they have been developed. The Toolkit is designed to help security and justice sector institutions to integrate a gender perspective: the sector needs to move beyond simply increasing the numbers of women, and become more aware of and responsive to different gendered needs of the entire population. In doing so, attention to often neglected security and justice needs of women and girls must always be a key priority.
