My Delegation, however, remains preoccupied by the fact that we are still far
from able to ensure full and equal participation of women in conflict prevention,
peace negotiations, peacemaking and post-conflict building. In many societies,
women are left inactive and with little chance to take part in decision-making
processes, and often excluded from peace and security areas. Women's
representation in security institutions, law enforcement bodies as well as peace
negotiation delegations has had little improvement since the adoption of Security
Council resolution 1325.
