Women, Peace and Security

A) Objetivos de la promesa

We acknowledge the 15^th anniversary of the adoption of UNSCR 1325 (2000) on Women, Peace and Security and reaffirm the commitments made therein as well as the subsequent resolutions, namely 1820 (2008); 1888 (2009); 1889 (2009), 1960 (2010), 2016 (2013), 2122 (2013) and 2242 (2015).  As a reflection of our commitment to the implementation of the Women, Peace and Security agenda, we pledge whenever possible to:

1. 1. Increase participation by women in peace processes and at all levels of decision-making in such processes.

2. 2. Improve protection for women and girls affected by conflict, including in refugee and internal displacement settings (e.g., the design and administration of camp and displacement settlements).

3. 3. Incorporate a gender perspective in conflict prevention and early warning systems.

4. 4. Develop, implement and promote National Action Plans as a means to enhance and formalise domestic implementation of the Women, Peace and Security agenda.

5. 5. Encourage and assist States who have not yet done so, to develop National Action Plans and engage with Regional Action Plans.

6. 6. Co-operate with other States and Agencies to exchange ideas and expertise on the most effective strategies for National Action Plans: bilaterally, multilaterally or within regional groups focused on security, political, or economic cooperation (e.g. EU, NATO, OSCE, ECOWAS and Pacific Islands Forum).

7. 7. Incorporate a gender perspective in security-sector activities and operations, including military, police, and peacekeeping operations, and increase the women’s representation and participation in operations.

8. 8. Incorporate a gender perspective in security-sector activities and operations, including military, police, and peacekeeping operations, and increase women’s representation and participation in operations.
