STORYLINE
UN peacekeeping chief Jean-Pierre Lacroix said, “gender parity remains a top priority for UN Peacekeeping and our partners,” adding that the world body is “working to advance the role of women in peacekeeping and creating the right conditions for them to contribute fully at all strategic, operational and tactical levels and in all roles.”

Speaking at a meeting on women in peace and security today (13 Dec) in New York, Jean-Pierre Lacroix said, “enhancing data driven approaches and gender analysis are enabling us to more systematically integrate gender perspectives into political strategies and Mission plans.”

He took the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) as an example, saying that indicators on Women in Peace and Security (WPS) within the transition plan “has contributed to the government taking forward WPS to its policies.”

Lacroix also said, “in DRC, and the Central African Republic, women's involvement in early warning mechanisms supported by the Missions helped identify protection threats for women and girls, as well as to develop gender responsive protection measures.”

He continued, “mixed engagement teams and gender responsive patrols have been instructive mechanism that contribute to women's safety, security as well as their participation in peacebuilding and politics.”
