Participation

The horrific acts perpetrated against women and girls by terrorist organizations, such as Da’esh and Boko Haram, require a comprehensive approach to eliminating the root causes of the problem. That approach should include women’s equal and full participation as active agents in the prevention and resolution of conf licts, peacebuilding and peacekeeping. Member States should vigorously pursue and ensure women’s equal participation and full involvement in all efforts for the maintenance and promotion of peace and security. Our recent history om conflict settlement includes success stories of women who have played a crucial role to that end.
