Thirdly, attention must be paid to the issues underlying the protection of women's security and curbing sexual violence in armed conflict. It is important to address issues of women's rights at a deeper level, in order to promote women's full development and eliminate the root causes of conflict. Attention should also be given to improving the economic and social development of the countries concerned, in order to enhance women's status and fully empower them. The international community must increase its attention to the development of women in those countries and scale up its aid in that area. It should support capacity- building for the Governments concerned and ensure that assistance to women's development is increased in their countries so as to effectively enhance women's status and protect their rights.
