Dear WIIS Member, 

On behalf of Women in International Security (WIIS), in partnership with Our Secure Future (OSF), we invite you to participate in a brief survey as part of a project on engaging the private sector in advancing the UN Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) agenda.

This initiative seeks to better understand the role the private sector can play in promoting inclusive peace and security—both as active partners in implementation and as advocates for the Women, Peace, and Security Act, which codifies the United States’ commitment to the WPS agenda. Through this research, WIIS is gathering insights to identify opportunities, challenges, and sector-specific approaches to private sector engagement. 

We are seeking perspectives from professionals with private sector experience. Your input will help strengthen understanding of how businesses integrate WPS principles into policies and practices and will inform practical recommendations to advance partnerships among the private sector, policymakers, and civil society. 

If this reflects your background, we encourage you to complete the survey. If you know a colleague whose experience aligns, please feel free to share the survey with them.

Please complete the survey by December 23 at 5:00 PM EST.

Thank you for your time and participation. We greatly value your insights and appreciate your contribution to this important research.

Sincerely,
Layla Hashemi
