Statement of the LEBANESE REPUBLIC at UNGA73

Participation/ General WPS:

“We are on the verge of finalizing a national action plan pertaining to the execution of the Security Council Resolution 1325 which called on the Member States to set action plans to enable women to take part in the decision-making process, negotiations and countering conflicts. The Lebanese action plan has indeed introduced the four axes of this Resolution, and it included the guarantee of women participation in decision-making at all levels, as well as the activation of their role in conflict prevention, adopting laws to ban discrimination against women, and to protect them from violence and abuse.”
