Our latest report is out: As the world celebrates the 20th anniversary of the United Nations Security Council resolution (UNSCR) 1325 on women, peace, and security, Yemen has finally joined as the fifth country in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region to develop a National Action Plan (NAP).
In our paper, we shed light on the initially civil society-led process regarding advancing the agenda of women, peace, and security in Yemen, and then focus on the government of Yemen’s subsequent efforts in developing the NAP.
Developing the NAP by the Yemeni government is a remarkable step, that requires comprehensive support. The report highlight the gaps in the current NAP and proposes recommendations to move forward.
