The United Nations is committed to the equality of women and men, and is working to help overcome the obstacles to their participation in all aspects of public life. In 2000, the UN Security Council passed its Resolution 1325, which calls for the representation and participation of women in all aspects and at all levels of peace processes. The Resolution built on the commitment of the United Nations to stand for gender equality and to promote women’s participation in politics and political processes, as signaled in the groundbreaking 1995 Beijing women’s conference and the Platform for Action which it agreed upon. Nepal, as a proud and longstanding Member State of the UN, has a responsibility to implement Resolution 1325 in its own peace process.
