Event Info In 2000 the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 1325, recognising for the first time that just and lasting peace will not be achieved without the full and equal participation of women. This resolution has been followed by eight other resolutions, including those that deal with conflict-related sexual violence; together they are known as the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda. Dr Noeleen Heyzer was a key driving force behind Resolution 1325 and will share her experience of its formation, as well as her interest in Gender Justice and threats to the recurrence of conflict. Dr Chantal de Jonge Oudraat will assess the progress of the WPS agenda and the challenges ahead to peace and security. Registration for this event has closed. |
