UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security.

About the Position

UN Security Council Resolution 1325 (UNSCR1325, 2000) is the landmark resolution on women, peace and security (WPS) that links gender equality to the maintenance of international peace and security. WPS agenda is a significant international normative and policy framework, because it addresses the gender-specific impacts of conflict, political crisis, displacement, disaster, violent extremism, and mass atrocities on women and girls. Two decades and nine resolutions after, WPS agenda continues to expand its footprint in global policy making.

Indonesia is one of the lead ASEAN Member States to advance WPS agenda in the ASEAN region, particularly around issues of conflict prevention, peace mediation and negotiation including counter terrorism (CT) and prevention of violent extremism (PVE), women in peace keeping operation among others. Under the UN Women Indonesia SN-AWP 2021-2025, governance and WPS is one of the programme priorities funded by various donors. It is also fully aligned with Indonesia UNSCDF 2021-2025.
