- Description
- 'The role of women in conflict situations is a security issue, rather than exclusively a social or private matter. .On 31 October 2000, the UN Security Council adopted unanimously a resolution on women, peace and security, calling upon states to protect the human rights of girls and women. Landmark resolution 1325 became a fact.. .On 4 December 2007 the Netherlands adopted the Dutch National Action Plan (NAP) on SCR 1325, relying on a broad support base. The signatories, including the Ministries of Foreign Affairs, Defence and the Interior and Kingdom Relations, civil society organisations and knowledge institutions took upon themselves to jointly make a worldwide difference within the field of women, peace and security. .This booklet describes some examples of the Netherlands’ integrated approach in Afghanistan, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Sudan.'
