  1. “Kazakhstan will continue to support the women and peace and security agenda and multilateral efforts to achieve gender equality, peaceful societies and inclusive governance.”

  2. “At the regional level, our country focuses on Afghanistan through a multidimensional approach of conflict prevention and resolution, recovery, reintegration and humanitarian assistance. The lack of access to quality and inclusive education, especially in rural areas, is the main obstacle to achieving women’s empowerment. Therefore, together with the European Union and the United Nations Development Programme, Kazakhstan continues to implement a programme to educate Afghan girls in its universities. We encourage donor countries to allocate a greater number of scholarships to women and girls from conflict-affected countries. Kazakhstan also contributes financially to a regional programme for Central Asia and Afghanistan, the United Nations-European Union-led Spotlight Initiative and several other important regional initiatives.”

  3. “The action plan will further contribute to increased women’s engagement in decision-making at all levels, their deployment in United Nations peace operations and improved gender-sensitive training for armed and security forces. We have a strong political will, all the necessary resources and a results-based monitoring and evaluation plan to achieve those goals. We have also recently joined the multi-stakeholder Compact on Women, Peace and Security and Humanitarian Action, launched at the Generation Equality Forum in 2021. National efforts must be reinforced by commitments at the regional level. In the context, the five countries of Central Asia, with the support of the United Nations, have created the Women Leaders’ Caucus to develop effective ways to fully realize the creative and peacemaking potential of women throughout Central Asia.”

  4. “Gender equality is one of the key priorities of the large-scale political and democratic reforms aimed at building a new Kazakhstan, a socially just democracy based on the principle of leaving no one behind and ensuring equal conditions for all. We have achieved significant progress in addressing gender issues on several fronts, improved our gender equality index by 60 per cent, introduced a 30 per cent quota for women and youth in Parliament and local representative bodies, and increased the proportion of women managers in State-owned corporations to 30 per cent as well. We are implementing the first national action plan on resolution 1325 (2000) for 2022–2025, which is a whole-of-government strategy developed in inclusive consultations with the United Nations and civil society.”

  5. “We must bridge the gap between words and actual action, and fully integrate the four pillars of the women and peace and security agenda — participation, protection, prevention and relief and recovery — in our national programmes and policies. Only then will the robust women and peace and security normative framework become a critical tool for conflict prevention and resolution and effect transformative change across all three pillars of the United Nations. Kazakhstan has been consistently working to strengthen the role of women in sociopolitical life and achieve the highest international standards in gender policy.”

  6. “We commend the Presidency of Brazil for convening this open debate on women and peace and security dedicated to women’s participation in international peace and security. We also thank Secretary-General António Guterres, UN-Women Executive Director Sima Sami Bahous, International Committee of the Red Cross President Mirjana Spoljaric Egger and the civil society representatives for their in-depth and insightful briefings, which reflect the urgency of increasing the role of women in promoting and maintaining peace all over the world. We acknowledge that while much progress has been made, there is a long way to go to fully implement the women and peace and security mandate.”
