As indicated in the latest report of the Secretary- General, we also believe that civil society represents a key partner in post-conflict situations and that women's organizations in particular can contribute significantly to enhancing early warning mechanisms allowing us to preempt the escalation of violence against women and to support awareness-raising initiatives to that end. Women's organizations can also play an essential role in developing women's capacities and enabling them to participate actively in conflict prevention, mediation and resolution processes. That is why it is important to further mobilize technical support for such efforts.
