Women of change in the time of war

The Romanian Diplomatic Institute (RDI) was the host of an important event on November 3, 2022.

Under the title “Women of change in the time of war”, the charity ActionAid organized an international conference which celebrated the adoption 22 years ago by the UN Security Council of Resolution 1325 “Women, Peace and Security” (WPS).

The WPS program encourages all states and organizations involved to take action to increase women’s participation and also to incorporate gender perspectives in the efforts to sustain world peace and security.

The resolution also calls on all parties in conflicts to adopt special measures to protect women and girls from violence, particularly rape and other forms of sexual abuse, in situations of armed conflict.

At the event hosted by RDI, the speakers were ambassadors and representatives in Bucharest of important governmental and non-governmental organizations involved in the WPS – UN.
