<p>The UK Mission to the UN is in close contact with UN Women, who are supporting
the coordination of the Global Study on the implementation of UN Security Council
Resolution (UNSCR) 1325 and related preparations for the High Level Review in October.
The Global Study will make an assessment on the implementation of UNSCR 1325 by UN
Member States, and make recommendations to improve global implementation. The main
findings of the Global Study will also be incorporated into the Secretary General’s
annual report on Women, Peace and Security, which we expect to be published around
the same time as the Global Study. Officials, working closely with colleagues from
the Ministry of Defence and the Department for International Development, are developing
a series of UK commitments to improve implementation of UNSCR 1325, which will focus
on several key areas where implementation to date has been most lacking, including
women’s participation, military/security services, financing, prevention and National
Action Plans. These commitments will be announced at the High Level Review in October,
subject to Ministers’ views on the proposals.</p>
