The symposium will bring together military, police and civilian participants in peace support operations, academics, researchers, government officials and local leaders from post-conflict societies, primarily from the Asia-Pacific region, to discuss their perspectives on and experiences with incorporating a "gender perspective" into peacekeeping
operations, as required by Security Council Resolution 1325 (2000). It will be the first time that this topic is explored in a scholarly symposium in Australia and coincides with the development of an Australian National Action Plan on Women, Peace, and Security.
