“In the context of the process of developing our third action plan, our country is facing the challenge of increasing the percentage of women in peace operations and in leadership and decision-making positions and of ensuring the presence of gender advisors in those operations. The promotion and protection of resolution 1325 (2000) continues to be part ofour national and collective responsibilities. The same is true of achieving the effective inclusion of women in all political, economic, social and cultural processes that our societies face. It is our hope that the award of this year's Nobel Peace Prize to Nadia Murad and Dr. Denis Mukwege for their efforts to end sexual violence as a weapon of war in armed conflict will inspire the Security Council and the international community to redouble their efforts to comply with the resolution.”

“The second national action plan was launched in 2015, reflecting the recommendations of the Security Council and relevant international good practices and emphasizing education, staff training and the inclusion of quantitative indicators. Currently, our country is focused on the development of a third-generation plan for 2019- 2022, with a view to strengthening the role of women in negotiation, mediation, peacemaking and peacebuilding. The areas of monitoring, evaluation and accountability will also be included in its objectives and budgetary allocations so as to ensure adequate implementation. The interministerial committee is working on expanding the scope of action to natural disasters, humanitarian assistance and the displacement of people, with the active collaboration of civil society and other institutions.”

“For that reason, we have promoted the strengthening of regional and global cooperation in that area by working on the implementation of public policies that ensure women's participation in all processes to implement resolution 1325 (2000) at the national level. Chile was the first country in the region to develop a national action plan in 2009 for the implementation of resolution 1325 (2000). That action plan was the result of coordinated work by an interministerial committee made up of the Ministry of Defence, the Ministry of Women and Gender Equity and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, also highlighting the participation of civil society in its preparation.”

“Resolution 1325 (2000) is a symbolic resolution of the Security Council, since it deals with one of the most tragic consequences of modern conflicts, namely, violence against women and girls during conflicts. We therefore welcome the fact that, to date, 76 members of the international community, including Chile, have put in place national plans of action for the implementation of the resolution. We express our hope that more countries will proceed to adopt their own national plans. The issue of women and peace and security is one of the priority areas of Chile's multilateral foreign policy.”

“Mrs. Berna] Prado (Chile) (spoke in Spanish): We thank the Bolivian delegation for convening this debate, which highlights the importance of the role that women play in conflict prevention and resolution through their political and economic empowerment and greater representation in decision-making levels related to international peace and security. Chile aligns itself with the statement to be made by the representative of Canada on behalf of the Group of Friends of Women, Peace and Security and reiterates its commitment to the promotion and rights of women in situations of armed conflict, as well as to the initiatives of the Secretary-General to promote gender equality in the United Nations system.”
