    The creation of UN Women came about as part of the UN reform agenda, bringing together resources and mandates for greater impact.

    It merges and builds on the important work of four previously distinct parts of the UN system, which focused exclusively on gender equality and women's empowerment:

    Duties And Responsibilities
