It also supports staff to implement Australia’s development strategy Partnerships for Recovery: Australia’s COVID-19 Development Response, which commits the Australian Government to maintaining Australia’s strong support and advocacy for initiatives to enhance gender equality and address gender-based violence, and to invest in gender equality and women’s economic empowerment.
