In terms of establishing quantifiable indicators in the follow-up to the implementation of resolution 1325 (2000), as requested by the Security Council, we should note, as was indeed highlighted by the Secretary-General, that these indicators must be further enhanced. The debate organized a few weeks ago by the Security Council on post-conflict peacebuilding (see S/PV.6396) allowed us, among other things, to highlight the substantial contribution of women to peacebuilding processes. The success and durability of peacebuilding processes after conflict often depend on the full participation of women in such processes. In that regard, lasting solutions must be proposed for women, in particular women refugees, who are often the first victims in conflict and post-conflict situations.
