This is the Statement that WILPF has prepared for the CSW 60th Session in March. It calls for "feminist foreign and domestic policy that ensures local action on demilitarization and women’s human rights for transformative change" as well as for "a change in priorities that invest in women’s human rights, divest from militarism, and safeguard political economies of gender justice and peace rather than economies of inequality and war". It also makes recommendations to the Commission on the Status of Women and the international community.
