Participation

Since the seminal adoption of resolution 1325 (2000), this Council has placed the participation of women in crisis management and recovery at the centre of its concerns, with the full support of France. Beyond the agenda on women and peace and security, the question of sexual violence in conflict is taking a growing place in our work. At Spain’s initiative, last December we also adopted resolution 2331 (2016), which, taking full account of the link between human trafficking, sexual violence and terrorism, is a great step forward for the Council.
