On 27 October 2021, Plataforma CIPÓ took part in a closed roundtable titled “At the crossroads of Climate, Gender and Sustaining Peace: What is the role of the UN peacebuilding architecture.” The discussion, organized by the Dag Hammarskjöld Foundation (DHF), the Global Network of Women Peacebuilders (GNWP) and the Global Partnership for the Prevention of Armed Conflict (GPPAC), brought together UN officials, member states and civil society organizations to discuss the role of the UN in addressing this “triple nexus” in post-conflict and conflict setting.
Background: In concluding the 2020 peacebuilding architecture review in December 2020, the adoption of dual resolutions on Peacebuilding and Sustaining Peace by the UN General Assembly (A/RES/75/201) and the Security Council (S/RES/2558) welcomed progress made in implementing the resolutions, and confirmed continued support for them. The dual resolutions also called on Member States, the UN and other stakeholders to “continue to take action to implement the resolutions on peacebuilding and sustaining peace, and to advance efforts to bring greater coherence to peacebuilding efforts“(S/RES/2558, OP1).
CIPÓ has recently published a series of articles on gender, climate and security, including with respect to the UN Women, Peace and Security Agenda, and on local approaches to gender, climate and peacebuilding.
