IMplementation

Extract: 

Viet Nam welcomes the progress made in the implementation of the women and peace and security agenda, as highlighted in the Secretary-General’s report. We particularly applaud the increased participation of women and the inclusion of the gender perspective in all areas, from conflict prevention to peacebuilding and from peace processes to reconstruction efforts. Viet Nam is also pleased to see the added impetus that last year’s high-level review provided for the implementation of commitments under the women and peace and security agenda. Viet Nam believes that implementation lies first and foremost with States, but real success can be assured only by establishing partnerships, especially with a better-coordinated and well-resourced United Nations.
