- Marginalized groups of women
- Gender equality
Type:Review DocumentationSession:2nd session, May 2008Status:N/AContents:As regards gender equality, the 2006-2009 National Strategy and Plan of Action for Equal Opportunities between women and men provide for actions to improve the situation of vulnerable categories, including those that are the most exposed to marginalization and social exclusion, because of multiple discriminations. Women are very much present in the political, social and economical life but there is still room for improvement insofar as representation at the top- decisional level is concerned. According to the assessment of the National Agency for Equal Opportunities between Women and Men (NAEO), in rural communities, women encounter obstacles in acquiring equal opportunities with men. Therefore, improving the socio-professional condition of women in rural areas is one of NAEO's priorities for 2008 (a job market for this category will be organized shortly). [Para 33] -

Para 91) In order to carry out the complex legislative steps required by the implementation of the Istanbul Convention, NAEO elaborated the necessary legislative package for the implementation of the Istanbul Convention, which includes the modification of the legislation regarding equal opportunities for women and men, on the prevention and combating domestic violence, the modification of the Criminal and Criminal Procedure Codes.
Para 92) At the same time, the Governance Program for the period 2017–2020 provides a series of measures aimed to preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence, and has as a prerequisite the adoption of the draft laws necessary for the harmonization of national legislation with the provisions of the Istanbul Convention and it will be transposed into secondary legislation, as well as the development of social services for victims of domestic violence and aggressors by implementing projects from European funds.
Para 93) Another important task of the NAEO is to finance and/or co-finance programs of national interest in the field of gender equality and prevention and combating domestic violence. A number of projects were and are to be developed in order to raise awareness on this phenomenon.
Para 95) Aspects related to domestic violence are being approached in the framework of the family law organized for the judicial trainees and for the continuous training by the National Institute of Magistracy.
Stakeholder Summary:

- HIV and AIDS
- Rights of same-sex desiring persons
Type:Review DocumentationSession:29th Session, January 2018Status:Not Followed up with a RecommendationContents:JS3 reported on an increase in the number of persons with HIV among vulnerable groups. The national HIV program has not been actively implementing the new approaches on HIV prevention and has not targeted MSM (men having sex with men). The drug procurement scheme based on a decentralized system led to inconsistencies and gaps, affecting access to treatment and health care of patients who were covered by antiretroviral treatment. The national drug strategy for 2013-2020 lacked financial support and operational plans to scale up HIV/AIDS prevention interventions by targeting people who injected drugs. The harm reduction interventions were mainly based on external donors. [Para 30] -
