National Action Plan Map
The adoption of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 (UNSCR 1325) on Women, Peace and Security (WPS) in 2000 was a groundbreaking achievement for the inclusion of women in international affairs, and the recognition of their vital contributions to peace and security. UNSCR 1325 does more than pay lip service to the importance of women’s full participation in creating durable peace and security – it is a mandate that calls countries to action. To ensure that countries follow through with their commitments, in 2005, the Security Council called on individual states to create National Action Plans (NAPs) detailing how they will fulfill the requirements of the mandate.
