Furthermore, the
multidimensionality of the problems of women and girls in situations
of armed conflict requires a systemic approach. In that connection,
Costa Rica understands that all United Nations organs and programmes
should participate in an active and coordinated manner in efforts
to overcome the great challenges in this area. We are concerned
at the compartmentalization of issues that, by their very nature,
are entirely cross-cutting, as the Secretary-General indicates
in his note contained in document A/61/583. For that reason, we
consider it imperative to move forward without delay in discussing
and taking swift decisions regarding the Organization’s
gender architecture.

H.E. Mr. Matussek, Representative
Mr. President,
The promotion of gender equality and women's empowerment - be
It in the context of conflict resolution or in attaining the internationally
agreed development goals - is an essential part of the UN mandate.
A coherent and effective Implementation of this mandate, including
Security Council Resolution 1325, needs a coherent and effective
gender architecture. Germany supports the respective concept paper
prepared by the DSG, Ms. Asha-Rose Migiro.

Third, I would
like to call for the speedy conclusion of the ongoing consultations
about the new gender entity of the UN and to stress, that this
entity will have to make violence against women an urgent issue.
We should also support the UN-agency programmes directed against
violence against women, especially the UN Trustfund to End Violence
against Women, administered by UNIFEM.

At the same time,
we cannot agree with the recommendations on creating specialized
machinery within the Security Council to monitor the implementation
of resolution 1325 (2000) on a national level. We believe that
that would simply exacerbate the problem of duplication and lack
of coherence. Experience in similar plans has shown that it would
not lead to real improvements in the field. What is needed is
to enhance the effectiveness of existing machinery and not establish
new bureaucratic structures, particularly at a time when the issue
of the new gender architecture of the United Nations has not yet
been resolved.
