In October 2000, the United Nations Security Council passed Security Council Resolution 1325 (UNSCR 1325), creating the “Women and Peace and Security” (WPS) agenda, drawing attention to women and girls during conflict. Nine WPS Resolutions followed and expanded the agenda to better respond to women and girls experience of violence as a result of armed conflict, and their inherent right to participate in peace negotiations and reconstruction efforts. In April 2019, the ninth WPS resolution 2467 for the first time recognized the specific targeting of men and boys in conflict and post conflict settings urging appropriate responses for male survivors and urges member states “to strengthen policies that offer appropriate responses and challenge cultural assumptions about male invulnerability”.
Join WIIS and the Embassy of Liechtenstein, Washington DC on December 2, 2021 at 1:00 PM (EST) for a virtual policy roundtable discussion highlighting the causes and gendered impacts of conflict related sexual violence on all individuals and discuss how the adoption of a comprehensive and inclusive gender perspective can build complement and strengthen prevention, protection and participation.
This event will feature opening remarks from the Ambassador of Liechtenstein to the United States, Ambassador Georg Sparber, and will be followed by a discussion with expert panelists, Charu Lata Hogg (Executive Director of the All Survivors Project), Razia Sayad (Former Child Rights Commissioner at the Afghanistan Independent Human Rights Commission) and Grace Ndirangu (Livelihoods Program Manager at RefugePoint). This event will be moderated by Ariela Blätter (President & CEO, WIIS).
