The year 2015 is an important mark for the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda, with both the Global Study and High-Level Review to commemorate the 15th anniversary of Resolution 1325.
At the 59th Session of the Commission on the Status of Women, WILPF, GNWP, WAND and the Consortium on Gender, Security & Human Rights will hold a civil society consultation to provide updates on the High-Level Review, discuss civil society engagement, and provide space for recommendations.
Raise your voice! Join us at the consultation, complete the civil society survey, and submit a report to the Global Study. See info: peacewomen.org/security-council/2015HLR
Take action! Push your government to take action on WPS including support inclusive consultations, strengthen prevention and disarmament, and substantially increase financing for WPS.
Strengthen momentum! As WILPF celebrates our 100 year anniversary, join us in the Hague April 27-29, 2015 where we will forge a new peace agenda for the next century! www.womenstopwar.org
