The UN Trust Fund is the first, and remains the only, global grant-making mechanism exclusively dedicated to eradicating all forms of violence against women and girls. It is managed by the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women) on behalf of the UN system and involves UN bodies and organs, civil society organizations (CSOs) and experts on ending violence against women and girls in its decision-making processes through its Programme Advisory Committee (PAC). With the strong institutional support of UN Women and its regional, multi-country and country offices and working closely with the rest of the United Nations system through its inter-agency Programme Advisory Committee, the UN Trust Fund plays a vital role in driving forward collective efforts to prevent and eliminate violence against women and girls.
