O Selo de Igualdade de Género do PNUD no CSJP da Bósnia — Primeira Instituição Pública Certificada na Europa (2020-2024)

Details

Maturity: Established
Promoter: High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council of Bosnia and Herzegovina (HJPC BiH)
Period: 2020-2024
Keywords: judiciary, public administration, workplace gender equality, institutional certification

Context

Em 2020, o High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council of Bosnia and Herzegovina (HJPC BiH) adotou a primeira Gender Equality Strategy do setor judicial da região e inscreveu-se no programa Gender Equality Seal for Public Institutions do UNDP, que exige uma autoavaliação, um plano de ação de reforma, e uma avaliação externa face a 40 indicadores de sucesso.

Results

Em dezembro de 2024, o HJPC BiH tornou-se a primeira instituição pública na Europa a receber o Seal, cumprindo 30 dos 40 indicadores e satisfazendo todas as condições obrigatórias para o nível Silver, com o UNDP e o HJPC BiH a reportarem paridade de género em todos os níveis da organização, incluindo cargos de tomada de decisão.

Conclusions

Nem o UNDP nem o HJPC BiH publicaram uma discriminação de custos do programa de reforma, pelo que a sua eficiência de custos não pode ser avaliada de forma independente com base nas fontes disponíveis.

Implementation

Implementation detail (cost, timeline, staffing, conditions for success) is not yet available for this practice.

Evaluated by C-NAPSE

Score profile — the dimensions behind the score — how it's computed

Transferability / replicability2/3

The Gender Equality Seal is a standardised UNDP programme already applied to multiple public institutions, making HJPC BiH's specific reform action plan a replicable template for other judicial or public bodies.

Impact on gender equality1/1

HJPC BiH reports gender parity reached at all levels of the organisation including decision-making positions, a concrete institutional outcome tied to the certification process.

Effectiveness1/1

The institution met 30 of 40 external audit indicators, clearing every mandatory condition required for the Silver-level Seal.

Efficiency0/1

No cost breakdown or cost-per-outcome data has been published for the reform programme, so efficiency cannot be evidenced from available sources.

Evaluated outcomes1/1

Results were verified through UNDP's external evaluation process against 40 named indicators, not self-report alone.

Sustainability1/1

HJPC BiH reports steady budget increases for gender-responsive work across three consecutive fiscal years, indicating continued institutional commitment beyond the certification date.

Achievement / evidence1/1

Becoming the first public institution in Europe to receive the Seal, built on the region's first judicial Gender Equality Strategy (2020), is a documented, verifiable first.

Gender-mainstreaming embedding1/1

The reform embeds gender considerations into leadership composition, budgeting and official communications (Media Action Plan) across the institution.

Curator validation1/1

The Silver Seal award was corroborated by two independent sources (UNDP and the Gender Equality Seal programme site) reporting the same 30/40 indicator result.
