Policy Weekly Women, Peace, and Security Resolution 1325: How has Nigeria Fared? by soluwajobi March 9, 2023 written by soluwajobi March 9, 2023 93 The United Nations Security Council adopted the Women’s Peace and Security (WPS) Resolution 1325 in October 2000, recognising the gendered impacts of conflict and the need to address them1 . The WPS agenda encompasses four pillars: women’s participation in decision-making and peace processes, gender mainstreaming in conflict prevention, protection of women’s and marginalised groups’ rights, and gender perspective in relief and recovery. Since UNSCR 1325, nine other resolutions on Women, Peace, and Security have been adopted, further emphasising the importance of women’s participation in peace and security. Additional frameworks for implementing the WPS agenda and global commitment to women’s rights include the 1979 Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) and the 1995 Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action. This edition of the Nextier Policy Weekly reviews Nigeria’s progress in achieving the WSP Agenda.
