Summary/Abstract: In 2000, the UN Security Council passed Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) which calls for the inclusion of women in all phases of peace processes, protection from Women’s human rights violations, and access to justice. The purpose of this article is to analyze and discuss the background reasons that led to the adoption of the first UN Resolution (1325) on WPS. The article also provides a brief overview of the recommended policy framework (National Action Plan) by the Secretary General of the Security Council for the implementation of Resolution 1325 and the key challenges and gaps in the implementation process. Additionally, the approach of regional organizations: the EU, NATO, and the OSCE will be explored in developing and establishing the tools and means for the implementation of WPS at the strategic, operational, and tactical levels.
