Resolution 1325
The resolution 1325 was about women having peace and a voice during the times of war. resolution 1325 was the first resolution to address how the war have impacted the lives of these women. The resolution wanted women to be safe and not to have to deal with the complications that were brought towards them. 1325 stresses on the importance of women having full participation as active agents in the prevention and resolution of conflicts , peace- building and peace keeping . They wanted women to be involved and have a voice in the security council. During this resolution movement , the women and armed conflict caucus made recommendations to the security council members that had a list of delegations in regards to women and their safety.
When the resolution 1325 was now existing , it was time now to put the plan into action. Different cooperation’s such as the NGOs, UN entities and member states shown that they are willing to ensure that women are a part of peace and security. The goal were for women to get what they needed and that was financial and technical support. People felt as if the UN system and the security counsel needed to move from words and start acting on what they said they were going to do. The NGO ( working group on women, peace, and security) had much involvement with bringing awareness the damage that was being done to the females. They printed and distributed twenty thousand copies of the resolution, they even organized a panel for international women’s day.
With awareness being made about the women’s suffering , the security council learned that a women’s peace are not there , that right to have some kind of peace as a human being were just not available to these women. Resources were now being made for people to witness what was being done to these women . Books , articles and analyses on womens peace theory plus the NGO, government were all putting different supplies out there for the building of women. Even the news were getting involved , they were providing the latest updates on women and peace. ” through consultations , group meetings and a generous grant from ford foundation, the peace women team brings together information from women and womens organizations working for peace around the world into a repository web site where communication is nurtured and accurate information is exchanged and made accessible.” With all of this being done the change for women struggles should be heard and society will hopefuly make a change.
