More than two decades ago, the United Nations Security Council adopted Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and Security (WPS). The resolution was a historic recognition of women’s unique experiences of conflict and an acknowledgment that gender equality is an integral part of international security and peace. Global support for the WPS Agenda has delivered nine additional resolutions, making it a cornerstone framework for international activists, policymakers, and researchers working to mainstream a gender perspective in peace and security efforts worldwide.
