Совместный проект ООН «Продвижение добросовестного управления для достижения социальной справедливости» нацелен на закрепление реформ и практик добросовестного управления на всех уровнях государственного и муниципального управления, организаций гражданского общества и частного сектора для сокращения бедности, защиты прав человека и устойчивого человеческого развития. Основная задача проекта –повышение и обеспечение более справедливого доступа к государственным услугам и благам уязвимых групп в трех избранных группах общества в рамках социальной справедливости (детей, женщин и молодежи) за счет улучшения процессов управления на национальном и местном уровнях. Реализация этой задачи будет оценена благодаря повышению «индекса социальной справедливости», совокупного показателя осведомленности целевых групп о правах, обязанностях и добросовестном управлении, связью с их представительством на национальном уровне, фактическому участию в процессе принятия решений и оказании услуг, а также включению в местные планы и бюджеты вопросов, вызывающих озабоченность у данных групп.

Проект осуществляет свою деятельность в 30 отобранных  сельских муниципалитетах и оказывает содействие органам местного самоуправления, представителям местных властей в улучшении качества оказываемых услуг на местном уровне, расширении доступа уязвимых групп населения (женщины, молодежь и дети) к услугам, во внедрении новых механизмов и технологий в управленческие процессы с целью повышения их эффективности.

Предполагается, что повышенное осознание требований и процессов добросовестного управления, в сочетании с улучшенными навыками разработки и применения инструментов и механизмов добросовестного управления при оказании государственных услуг, практическая демонстрация таких инструментов и механизмов в действии повысит приверженность делу добросовестного управления на всех уровнях и обеспечит возможность институционализации продемонстрированных механизмов и их внедрение во всей системе.

ООН Женщины обеспечивает гендерную экспертизу программной деятельности с точки зрения гендерного равенства и учет гендерных вопросов в документах и методиках. В рамках проекта проводится ряд исследований, направленных на выявление пробелов и проблем в области предоставления социальной помощи населению, а также выработка механизмов и инструментов по улучшению ситуации. С этой целью ООН Женщины привлекает гендерного эксперта для проведения гендерного анализа методик, стратегий, разработок, исследований и гендерной экспертизы нормативно-правовых актов и законов в области социальной защиты.
