  1. “Incorporating differentiating criteria for analysing existing threats strengthens the ability of the security sector to provide appropriate responses according to the rights and priorities of each population group. To that end, the OAS offers its full cooperation to help incorporate women's rights and gender equality into regional and international security policies and programmes, in particular with regard to strengthening civilian oversight of the security sector and effectively addressing and preventing violence against women.”

  2. “Our own Inter-American Convention on the Prevention, Punishment and Eradication of Violence against Women provides a strong legal framework to support the full implementation of resolution 1325 (2000), and the Follow-Up Mechanism to the Convention has placed particular emphasis on violence against women perpetrated by the State or people acting on behalf of the State. Failure to consider the security situation of women, on the one hand, and their absence from structures where decisions are made and action taken in the area of security, on the other, is tantamount to the security policy in most of the region's countries ignoring more than 50 per cent of the population.”

  3. “In addition, as a number of authors have pointed out, public debates on security issues and public policies and programmes that attempt to address those issues are often based on indicators that reduce violence to criminal activities, which usually excludes the violence against women, which is most often exercised within the home. In this forum, the OAS commits to undertaking advocacy efforts to promote the relevance of resolution 1325 (2000), in addition to the other resolutions on women and peace and security, particularly those that address sexual violence in times of conflict and crisis.”

  4. “We face many of the issues that also confront countries in conflict, including weak rule of law, security institutions that are incapable of or unwilling to respect human rights, the proliferation of small arms and high levels of all types of violence, including violence against women, particularly the gender-based killing of women, known in our region as femicide. Although the lack of citizen security is a problem affecting the entire population, women experience violence, robbery, trafficking and other security issues differently from men as a result of their differential relationship to public spaces.”

  5. “On the other hand, those changes have also been accompanied by growing levels of income inequality, persistent corruption, growing dissatisfaction with the quality of representative democracy and, above all, rising levels of crime and violence. Security has a central role to play in the success of our new democracies. While the Americas do not have any countries that are formally defined as being in conflict, our region is plagued by high levels of citizen insecurity, a reality that is regularly cited in public opinion surveys as one of the main concerns of our citizens.”

  6. “Mr. Lainez: Let me begin by thanking you, Mr. President, on behalf of the Organization of American States (OAS) and its Inter-American Commission of Women, for the opportunity to address this historic celebration of the fifteenth anniversary of the adoption of resolution 1325 (2000) - a watershed moment for the women of the world in terms of how they are affected by, and participate in, all types of conflict and crisis. The Americas are passing through an age of democratic consolidation that has been marked, on the one hand, by moments of progress, broader levels of participation in politics and decision-making, relatively stable levels of economic growth and unprecedented levels of connectivity and access to information.”
