1. “It is in that context that the Philippines was happy to sign up to the women and peace and security focal points network, which was launched here in New York last September. We thank the Government of Spain for that initiative. We discovered that some States found our experience in the partnership between Government and civil society particularly useful. We believe that the focal point network will make this sharing of experiences more efficient and timely, and we look forward to taking advantage of this tool. I am also proud to announce that the Philippines is represented in the roster of Justice Rapid Response by three Filipino professionals, who can be requested by the international community to investigate, analyse and report on situations where serious human rights and international criminal violations have been reported.”

2. “Since the Philippines formulated the national action plan it has focused on the localization of the four pillars of the plan. There are now 41 provinces within conflict zones that have developed their ow local action plans. Identifying their own specific concerns and prioritizing them has made the national action plan relevant to such local areas. The Office ofthe Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process, the co-Chair of the steering committee of the national action plan, is committed to engaging more local Government units to formulate their own local action plans. The Philippines believes that States can benefit from each other's national experiences in enriching their own programmes.”

3. “The Philippines national action plan rests on four pillars; first, protection and prevention to ensure the protection of women's human rights; secondly, empowerment and participation to empower women and ensure their active and meaningful participation in the areas of peacebuilding, peacekeeping, conflict prevention, conflict resolution and post-conflict reconstructio; thirdly, promotion and mainstreaming to promote and mainstream gender perspectives in all aspects of conflict prevention, conflict resolution and peacebuilding; and, fourthly, capacity development and monitoring and reporting to institutionalize a system to monitor, evaluate and report on the implementation of the national action plan in order to enhance accountability for the successful implementation and achievement of its goals.”

4. “As the first country in Asia to develop a national action plan, in 2010, the Philippines has been steadily implementing the provisions of its plan on a national scale. Our six-year national action plan has four interrelated and complementary purposes, with corresponding outcomes, indicators, time frames and key implementers.”

5. “I thank you, Sir, for convening this open debate as we mark one year since the high-level review on the implementation of resolution 1325 (2000), on women and peace and security. The Philippines takes this opportunity once again to renew its commitment to effectively implement this initiative and its support for the Security Council's important work on this matter. I also wish to thank the Secretary- General, the Executive Director of UN-Women and our civil society partners for their informative briefings. The Philippines aligns itself with the statement made on behalf of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, delivered earlier today by my colleague from Thailand, and with the statement made on behalf of the Group of Friends of Women and Peace and Security.”
