| The
Checklist on Women’s Participation and Gender Perspectives
in Security Council Resolutions was developed during
a Roundtable held in January 2004 at the Rockefeller Foundation,
entitled “Towards International Peace and Human Security:
Advancing Prevention, Participation and Protection in the
Work of the Security Council.” The Roundtable was co-hosted
by the NGOWorking Group on Women, Peace and Security, the
Permanent Missions to the UN of Canada, Chile and the United
Kingdom. The Roundtable brought together Security Council
members as well as representatives from select UN agencies
and civil society organizations to discuss how to strengthen
the Council’s work in conflict “prevention”,
the “participation” of women in peace and security,
and the “protection” of civilians. This conceptual
framework, known as ‘the three P’s’, was
developed by the NGO Working Group to encourage better integration
of the five thematic resolutions (Res. 1266 and 1296 on Protection
of Civilians in Armed Conflict; 1366 on Prevention of Armed
Conflict; 1325 on Women, Peace and Security; and 1460 on Children
in Armed Conflict), in advancing peace and human security
in all the Security Council’s work. |
‘Resolution’
here is taken to mean ‘resolution, presidential statement
or terms of reference for Security Council fact-finding Missions.’
