Tajikistan adopted a National Plan of Action by decree of the Government on 10 September 1998. The Plan contains six themes including health care; education, science, and professional training; poverty and economy; women's rights; violence against women; and environment. The National Machinery for the Improvement of the Status of Women is the Women's Committee of the Government.

The government's goal concerning women's rights is to ensure and protect women's rights and to ensure equal opportunities in the political and economic arena. The Tajik government seeks to achieve these goals by ratifying relevant international treaties, revising existing legislation to reflect international law, reviewing legislation on gender, improving mechanisms to avoid the violation of women's rights in the application of law, compiling information on women's conditions in the workforce, and completing the implementation of Tajik laws.

The Tajik government's goals regarding violence against women are to prevent all forms of violence against women and to increase public awareness about various forms of violence against women. The government will seek to achieve these goals by conducting studies in various regions to identify the reasons and magnitude of violence against women, establishing crisis centers and hotline services to provide support to women, providing legal education to women on violence issues, establishing a women's center at the Committee of Women and Family of the Government of Tajikistan, and drafting a law on the prevention of violence against women.

Tajikistan has not submitted a response to the UN Division for the Advancement of Women's questionnaire on the implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action.
