Luxembourg supports the recommendations elaborated by the Secretary-General in his report. Increased efforts are necessary at all levels, including the national level, to ensure the full implementation of resolution 1325 (2000). Within the framework of its national gender equality plan, Luxembourg is committed to systematic support for initiatives aimed at incorporating the gender perspective into the work of international and regional organizations, and to ensuring that it is taken into account in conflict and post-conflict situations. My country also strives to ensure the systematic taking into account of the gender perspective in its cooperation projects and humanitarian action to better achieve the Millennium Development Goals. We fully support the peace initiatives undertaken by local women's groups and the work of non-governmental organizations to ensure the equal participation of men and women in post- conflict situations.
