🌍Celebrating 24 years of UNSCR 1325 women, peace andsecurity🌍, we see its transformative impact in:

1. Women’s Participation in Peace Processes: More women involved in peace negotiations has led to agreements that are 35% more likely to last 15 years.

2. Gender-Sensitive Agreements: Women’s input has made peace accords more inclusive, addressing issues like gender-based violence and economic empowerment.

3. Community Resilience: Women’s unique perspectives foster grassroots solutions and trust within communities.

4. Gender-Responsive Policies: UNSCR 1325 inspired National Action Plans, promoting gender-sensitive approaches globally.

5. Protection of Women and Girls: Emphasis on preventing gender-based violence and safeguarding women in conflict zones.

6. Inclusive Security Institutions: Women’s involvement has made peace and security sectors more representative and accountable.

UNSCR 1325 proves that peace processes are more durable and just when women lead.
