Summary/Abstract: In this paper the author contemplates the process of developing the National Action Plan for Implementing United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 – Women, Peace, and Security in the Republic of Serbia (2010-2015), particularly taking into account indicators of the present status of the security sector pertaining to this document. Elaboration of the indicators for assessment of women’s status in the security sector is an integral part of research conducted within the Strategic Planning Department of the Ministry of Defence. The findings of this research contribute to identification of the possibilities and ways to improve the current situation through the concept of the action plan and through further elaboration of the objectives, measures, activities, implementing parties and their partners, deadlines provided, resources required, etc. The implementation of the above research and, in particular, elaboration of the indicators and development of the National Action Plan for Implementing UN SC Resolution 1325, further enhance the process of security sector reform already in progress in the Republic of Serbia through having international standards and, primarily, the standards of the United Nations, the European Union, NATO, and the OSCE incorporated in the national legislation, strategic and planning documents.
