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.
Violence against women and girls and domestic violence are widespread social problems in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), constituting serious violations of fundamental human rights. This type of violence is still seen and tolerated as “socially acceptable behaviour” and is justified by the prevailing socially accepted gender norms on the role and status of women in the family and in society. Results of the first countrywide Survey on Prevalence and Characteristics of Violence against Women (2013) indicated that almost half of women older than fifteen have been subjected to one or more forms of violence at least once in their lifetime. This research confirmed that women in BiH are exposed to a high risk of experiencing violence, primarily through their immediate, intimate relationships with partners and family, and secondarily in their broader community. Women who suffer multiple forms of discrimination such as women with disabilities, Roma women and rural women are at greater risk of experiencing such violence.

“Standards and Engagement for Ending Violence against Women and Domestic Violence in Bosnia and Herzegovina”, is a three-year project that will be implemented by the UN Women Country Office in BiH to strengthen the institutional and social response mechanisms to violence against women and domestic violence in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This will be realised by improving the availability, accessibility and quality of services to survivors of violence against women and domestic violence, as well by promoting favourable social attitudes and behaviours towards ending violence against women and domestic violence among men, women and young people. It will enhance availability, access and quality of services utilizing a multisectoral approach to address violence against women and domestic violence in BiH. This will be realised by supporting state based and non-governmental institutional service provision in line with the requirements of the Istanbul Convention, as well as by deploying direct support to capacity development of relevant service providers in selected communities. Furthermore it will engage men, women and young people to foster favourable social attitudes and behaviours towards ending violence against women and domestic violence, as well as reduce the stigmatization of survivors, by enhancing public awareness and knowledge building on violence against women and domestic violence and available services.
Under the direct supervision of the EVAW Project Manager and overall supervision of the Programme Specialist, the Project Assistant supports the activities of the “Standards and Engagement for Ending Violence against Women and Domestic Violence in Bosnia and Herzegovina” project, funded by SIDA, by performing a variety of standard administrative processes ensuring high quality and accuracy of work. The Project Assistant promotes a client, quality and results-oriented approach.

The Project Assistant works in close collaboration with the EVAW project staff and the operations team to ensure consistent service delivery.
