| United Nations Joint Programme
to Protect and Promote the Human Rights of Women and Girls in Turkey
is supported by all UN agencies operating in Turkey, in addition to several
partners and bilateral donor countries.
A major contribution is provided by Hacı Ömer Sabancı Foundation. Originally Canada, Denmark, Finland,
Germany Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom supported the UNJP. Recently France has provided
