Gender Equality
Definition
Gender Equality supports women’s meaningful participation in peace processes and security institutions. Women and girls are disproportionately affected by conflict; all voices need to be heard to build long-lasting “whole of society” peace solutions.
“The state in which there are equal rights, responsibilities, opportunities and access for men, women, boys and girls.”
