“For the same reason, it is relevant to promote a peacebuilding approach from the territories according to which we see peace not as an absence of conflict but as the creation of the basic conditions that allow our societies to prosper under a democratic and inclusive rule of law that promotes the peaceful resolution of conflicts at all levels. That is where the role of women, in all aspects of public life, is vital.”

“The economic empowerment of women is an important factor that must be considered in long-term peacebuilding strategies, not only to contribute to the sustainability of their communities but also because the participation of women in the economy in fragile and conflict-affected countries also makes them less likely to be the victims of the various forms of violence stemming from economic vulnerabilities. Likewise, the participation of women in local economies contributes to reversing the structural causes of conflicts such as poverty, including the feminization of poverty. It is not possible, however, to think about empowering women in the framework of the economy and in decision-making processes in the context of conflicts if the protection of their rights and security is not first guaranteed.”

“In that respect, it should be noted that Chilean foreign policy has defined as standing objectives the maintenance and promotion of lasting peace, in addition to a commitment to actively contributing to the efforts to bring about peace that are promoted by the United Nations. Investing in women to promote peacekeeping and peacebuilding should not focus only on investing in the development of women’s mediation and negotiation skills, the promotion of gender-sensitive policies and programmes and knowledge of international human rights guarantees, but also on ensuring their economic empowerment and autonomy so as to make them into resilient actors in the face of conflicts.”

“We believe that it is important to acknowledge the work done by civil society in that area and to focus on the establishment of follow-up mechanisms that enhance and expand the implementation of the agenda. We now have an opportunity to prepare a third document of the same methodological rigour but that incorporates a holistic and intersectoral perspective that will allow us to strengthen our response to emerging challenges such as the current health crisis, the natural disasters to which Chile is so prone, social conflicts and the greater prevalence of gender violence in all those scenarios.”

“Ms. González Carrillo (Chile) (spoke in Spanish): We thank the United Arab Emirates for having convened this important debate. We also thank the speakers for their presentations and the testimonials provided. As we have pointed out on different occasions, the women and peace and security agenda is one of the priority axes of Chile’s multilateral foreign policy. Through various means, we have strengthened our commitment to the implementation and promotion of resolution 1325 (2000). Indeed, our intersectoral table includes three ministries and other institutions. Chile’s strong commitment to the women and peace and security agenda has made us leaders in the region, with the launch of the first national action plan in 2009, updated in 2015 by the second plan, which incorporates measurable and updatable objectives in a fresh context.”
