As part of the “She Builds Peace” campaign, and marking the 25th anniversary of the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) Agenda, the 10th anniversary of the WASL Network, and in cooperation with the International Civil Society Action Network (ICAN), the Abductees’ Mothers Association organized an awareness session on Tuesday titled:
“Resolution 1325 and its impact on the reality of women in Yemen.”
The session aimed to raise awareness about the significance of UN Security Council Resolution 1325, which emphasizes women’s participation in peace processes and their protection during conflicts. Participants discussed the resolution’s application within the Yemeni context and the challenges women continue to face in their pursuit of justice and sustainable peace.
Discussions further highlighted the importance of promoting women’s engagement in peacebuilding and decision-making, protecting them in times of armed conflict, and reflecting on how the implementation of Resolution 1325 has affected Yemeni women under current conditions.
Throughout the session, participants shared real-life experiences from within the conflict, underscoring the urgent need to empower and support women to play a meaningful role in peacebuilding efforts.
This event comes as part of the Abductees’ Mothers Association’s ongoing efforts to empower women and strengthen their participation in issues of justice, peace, and national reconciliation.
