Women-Peace-and-Security

Women, Peace and Security​​

​In 2000 the United Nations Security Council passed the landmark Resolution UNSCR 1325 on women, peace and security.

Mounting evidence shows that when women are included, peace processes are more sustainable, which results in greater state stability and in functional security and justice institutions. But many barriers remain and prevent women from participating in peace processes. States and their security and justice institutions still fail to provide security and safety for women and men alike. They also fail to address the widespread impunity and ongoing violations of women’s rights during conflict and as part of the transformation and state building processes post conflict.


Switzerland and the SDC have made a unique contribution to gender equality in the field of peace and security.​

At the same time, women should be better protected - especially from sexual violence. Switzerland reaffirms this commitment in its fourth national action plan, 2018-2022.
