More over, we should guarantee the participation of women in the solution and prevention of conflicts. The rehabilitation and reconstruction aspects are very important tools for the full implementation of Resolution 1325 (2000). Guatemala supports the notion that women should have a predominant role in mediation of controversies. We encourage the Secretary General to appoint more qualified women as Special Representatives and Special Envoys. We express our deep concern at the delay in the deployment of Women Protection Advisors, requested to the Secretary General in Resolution 1888 (2009). We hope that in the future the appointment of the WPA will be made without further delay to fulfill the mandate of said resolution.
