The paper calls for the application of a human security framework in the development of the proposed U.S. SCR 1325 National Action Plan. According the the summary, "Empirical evidence, as well as precedent in the compliance with and monitoring of international and human rights law, demonstrates that a comprehensive and effective NAP must address both external and the internal dimensions of implementation (i.e. international and domestic application)."

The paper explores best practices and outlines several key areas of domestic relevance that, if addressed, would create a strong alignment between U.S. civil society and the administration towards a robust and meaningful implementation of SCR1325.

WAND is a proud sponsor of the WILPF white paper.
