UN DPPA Women Peace and Security Policy (2019)

The Department of Political and Peacebuilding Affairs’ (DPPA) Women, Peace and Security Policy (hereafter the Policy) outlines the Department’s approach and commitment to the implementation of Security Council resolution 1325 (2000) and eight subsequent resolutions on women, peace and security (WPS) as well as the gendered dimensions of the General Assembly’s resolutions on mediation and conflict prevention and the twin resolutions from the two entities on sustaining peace. The Policy seeks to ensure that gender relevant issues and perspectives are integrated into all the Department’s activities to promote inclusive conflict prevention, mediation and peacebuilding.
