Feminist Phenomenon; 7th Anniversary of Resolution 1325 Is it the 7th Year of Hypocrisies, or the Year of Implementation?

What is the use of celebrating the law that for the first time expressed concern over women adversely affected by armed conflicts, and did
not act to protect women from the suffering they face in these wars and conflicts? What is the use of “reaffirming the important role of
women in the prevention and resolution of conflicts and peacebuilding” when the Security Council members do not abide by this
resolution? What is the use of “reaffirming also the need to implement fully international humanitarian and human rights law that protects the
rights of women and girls during and after conflicts” when we still witness repetitive violations to women and girls' rights in areas of
conflicts?
