“There is in fact a women’s unit of the rapid intervention brigade of the Royal Armed Forces within MONUSCO peacekeepers. In conclusion, I would like to take this opportunity, as we will soon be celebrating the International Women’s Day, to stress that gender equality and the participation of women are basic human rights for women and that they must be upheld if we are to bring peace to societies and strengthen their ability to realize the Sustainable Development Goals.”

“They have also contributed to strengthening the role of women in resolving conflict, establishing peace and protecting civilians, as provided for under the mandates of the peacekeeping operations in which those Moroccan women serve. In addition to peacekeeping, Moroccan women have served in many other areas including health, telecommunications, logistics, administration, social aid and military operations. Moroccan women currently participate in four peacekeeping operations, namely, the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic, the United Nations Mission in South Sudan, the United Nations Integrated Transition Assistance Mission in Sudan and the United Nations Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (MONUSCO).”

“The Kingdom of Morocco has sought to serve the principles of peace and security since the 1960s through its participation in United Nations peacekeeping operations. The Royal Armed Forces have been present in peacekeeping operations on four continents, but mostly in Africa. Like the other royal institutions, the Royal Armed Forces implement the directives of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, who, as the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, attaches particular importance to the full and entire participation of Moroccan women. Since 1992, 2,100 Moroccan women have prevented violence against women and protected women’s rights in conflicts and in post-conflict contexts by participating in peacekeeping operations.”

“Based on best international practices and outcomes of the African Union’s implementation of its women and peace and security agenda, our national work plan is a platform for action, with three main areas: first, preventive diplomacy, mediation and peacekeeping; secondly, strengthening a culture of peace and equality; and thirdly, women’s economic participation. Our national work plan also serves as a springboard for addressing the regional and global challenges that threaten women’s rights, security and participation in all areas of life in Africa. The implementation of our national work plan includes South-South cooperation and triangular cooperation with sisterly African countries.”

“The Kingdom of Morocco has adopted a comprehensive integrated approach in the preparation of that national plan, with a view to addressing new security threats, including emergency situations, such as the coronavirus disease pandemic. The Moroccan national plan empowers women in all areas to face emerging threats in a regional and international context that is increasingly complex. Our national plan was launched in March 2022 in New York, at an event chaired by my colleague His Excellency Mr. Nasser Bourita, the Moroccan Minister for Foreign Affairs and African Cooperation and Moroccans Residing Abroad.”

“There needs to be a greater effort by the international community to ensure that women’s issues are placed at the core of all efforts pertaining to peacekeeping, peacebuilding and sustaining peace. In August 2021, the Kingdom of Morocco adopted its first national plan for women and peace and security, which consists of a comprehensive political framework pursuant to resolution 1325 (2000) and subsequent Council resolutions. Our initiative translates the vision of His Majesty King Mohammed VI for promoting gender equality and protecting women’s rights. The women and peace and security national plan was subject to a broad consultation among all relevant departments and sectors as well as civil society, with valuable contribution and support from UN-Women.”

“Resolution 1325 (2000) stresses the importance of the equal participation of women and their full participation in all efforts aimed at maintaining peace and security at all levels of decision-making, as well as their protection from physical and gender-based violence. A great deal has undoubtedly been done to implement resolution 1325 (2000) demonstrated by the participation of more women in peacekeeping and peacebuilding operations. There is also greater attention to the rights of women and gender equality in United Nations political efforts aimed at conflict resolution. Nevertheless, a great of work remains to be done to address all the challenges that prevent the empowerment of women, particularly in conflict and crisis situations.”
