Content:

20 years after the adoption of UN Security Council Resolution 1325 in 2000, we can look back on a great number of policy initiatives and action plans to implement the resolution and the subsequent resolutions on Women, Peace and Security. Moving forward, 2020 should be a year to take stock on what has been done and to continue this endeavour with new momentum as it is not only the 20th anniversary of UNSCR 1325 but also the 25th anniversary of the UN’s Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing.

From policy makers to international organizations, from research institutes to grassroots initiatives, each stakeholder’s efforts mark a crucial step towards successful implementation of UNSCR 1325 and thus a peaceful world for all.

If you can not participate in the conference, you can still register for the live webinar discussion!

The discussion will be held in English.
