There is a good window of opportunity now to give women peace and security issues a boost on the regional level as the UN is currently leading a process of strengthening the role of regional organizations under Chapter VIII of the UN Charter, dealing with conflict prevention, in particular early warning and early action. The OSCE Secretary General in his recent round of consultations with senior UN interlocutors, including the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and Deputy SG Eliasson, found strong support for the OSCE to play a central role in this process. The OSCE welcomes in this regard the adoption of today's resolution, which clearly recognizes the efforts of regional organizations in implementing Women, Peace and Security commitments, including the development of action plans and implementation frameworks.
