03 NOVEMBER 2022, NEW YORK CITY
2. Wide shot, Security Council
3. SOUNDBITE (English) António Guterres, Secretary-General, United Nations:
“Our world is transforming at breakneck speed. We must keep pace to keep peace. Madame President, Peacebuilding gains on the African continent and elsewhere are reversing. We must ensure a sharper focus on preventing and building resilience.”
4. Wide shot, Security Council
5. SOUNDBITE (English) António Guterres, Secretary-General, United Nations:
“Our peace operations must be empowered and equipped to play a greater role in sustaining peace at all stages of conflict, and in all its dimensions. And that requires committed, inclusive national ownership that considers the needs of the most vulnerable, including women, young people, and minorities. Above all, development and respect for all human rights – economic, social, cultural, civil, and political – are the world’s best preventive tools against violent conflict and instability.”

7. SOUNDBITE (English) António Guterres, Secretary-General, United Nations:
“We must bolster the leadership of women and youth in shaping the future of their countries and ensure they benefit from peace and development gains. The contributions of women peacekeepers and local women networks are pivotal to building community resilience and ensuring that women’s concerns are front and centre in conflict prevention and resolution efforts. We know securing women’s rights and equal participation in decision-making is essential to building and maintaining peace.”
8. Wide shot, Security Council
9. SOUNDBITE (English) Martha Ama Akyaa Pobee, Assistant Secretary-General for Africa, Departments of Political and Peacebuilding Affairs and Peace Operations:
“To ensure the success of peace operations, we need inclusive strategies that consider the entire spectrum of peace from prevention, conflict resolution, and peacekeeping to peace building and development. This would also require the mobilization and engagement of all related actors, whether International, regional, or national, working together in an integrated and coordinated manner. The Security Council has a vital role to play in this regard.”
10. Wide shot, Security Council
11. SOUNDBITE (English) Mary Robinson, Chair, the Elders:
“Security, sustainable development and human rights should be the bedrock of effective and resilient UN peace operations. But we know there remains significant challenges in turning this core principle into practice. The Security Council needs to lead by demonstrating coherence, acting in the collective interests of the whole United Nations, and working more closely with other parts of the organization.”

13. SOUNDBITE (English) Shirley Ayorkor Botchwey, Minister for Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration, Ghana:
“Ghana is concerned that not enough resources have been devoted to non-military interventions and peace operations in comparison to the military component. As the 2015 High Level Independent Panel on Peace Operations notes, changes in conflict may be fast outpacing the ability of UN peace operations to respond. That sustainability gap now threatens current peacekeeping missions as a number of host countries of peacekeeping missions tend to interventions by outside forces, while at the same time limiting the mandate of peace missions.”
