  4. “Albania has taken important steps towards officially embracing gender-responsive budgeting at both the central and local levels. It is time to engage in a new level of cooperation with regional organizations. Only by working together at the various levels can we close the huge gap between what has been achieved on paper and the implementation of the women and peace and security agenda on the ground. Such cooperation is especially vital in the context of recent military coups and seizures of power by force, as a result of which we have witnessed abrupt interruptions to national commitments on women and peace and security. I now resume my functions as President of the Council. I call on the Permanent Representative of the United States and member of President Biden’s Cabinet.”

  5. “In the OIC, Albania is fully engaged and very supportive of every initiative that aims to strengthen the meaningful participation of women at all levels, and to accelerate the women and peace and security agenda and the normative framework adopted by the Security Council over the years. I am very happy to report on some real, bold and significant achievements on the meaningful participation of women in important decision-making processes in my country. Albania currently ranks among the top five most gender-balanced Governments in the world, with women making up 75 per cent of its ministers. Some of the top public positions in Albania — including in independent institutions, agencies and departments in key areas of the State — are successfully held by women.”

  6. “The women and peace and security agenda was integrated as one of the priorities of Albania’s OSCE Chairmanship in 2020, injecting new momentum into its work in promoting the role of women in conflict resolution and peace processes. We are happy to see that the OSCE continues to prioritize women and peace and security. As a member of NATO, Albania is working tirelessly to reduce barriers to the active and meaningful participation of women in security institutions at the national level and within the Alliance. Women today constitute almost 20 per cent of Albania’s total armed forces personnel.”

  7. “In coordination with the United Nations system, with Member States and with one another, regional organizations can provide rapid, flexible funding to women human rights defenders and women-led organizations operating in conflict and post-conflict settings. To that end, we must ensure that all regional organizations prioritize the women and peace and security agenda and develop action plans and strategies to implement it, in accordance with resolution 1325 (2000) and other relevant Security Council resolutions. Through its participation within several regional organizations, such as the OSCE, NATO and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), Albania is committed to fulfilling its duty regarding the acceleration and full implementation of the women and peace and security agenda.”

  8. “While many regional organizations already cooperate closely with each other, it will be important to intensify that cooperation and gradually build a network of regional organizations aiming to improve data disaggregation, produce gender analyses, share best practices and coordinate gender-responsive and human rights-based approaches to ensure the meaningful inclusion of women, especially those from traditionally marginalized groups, in political and peace and security processes. It is crucial for regional organizations to work closely with civil society and especially women- led organizations at the grassroots level. Regional organizations must be able to support safe and enabling environments for women peacebuilders, human rights defenders and civil-society activists.”

  9. “We must strengthen the partnerships and coordination with such regional organizations and make their voices heard in the Security Council and in the broader United Nations system. In many ways, regional organizations have unique and complementary capacities, which when properly coordinated with the United Nations system can produce good, fast and effective results in preserving and or accelerating the implementation of the women and peace and security agenda, especially in contexts of political turmoil and the seizure of power by force.”

  10. “As we heard today, a large number of regional organizations, including the European Union, the African Union, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) and the League of Arab States have adopted or are about to adopt dedicated plans and strategies to implement and prioritize the agenda for women and peace and security. That is a wonderful development. Regional organizations are often the first to react in crisis response and to engage with the parties concerned to ensure the protection of civilians. They are uniquely placed to build trust and promote dialogue among the parties involved, as well as to offer support in mediation and reconciliation, and can be influential in advocating for women’s full, equal, meaningful and safe participation in all aspects of peace and security.”

  11. “In Afghanistan, since the violent takeover of the Taliban in August 2021, women have been systematically erased from public life, and those who have protested have been violently repressed, abducted, killed or subjected to other forms of reprisals. It is deeply worrying that despite promises and commitments, girls continue to be denied an education. That is unacceptable. In the Sudan, Myanmar and Mali, the violence that has erupted has threatened not just the fragile gains of the women and peace and security agenda, but the very lives and work of women peacebuilders themselves, and has also tested the ability of the international community to fulfil the mandate of the Council in maintaining international peace and security.”

  12. “Because of the war in Ukraine, as the Council has heard many times, including on Monday last week (see S/PV.9056), the substantive gains in the area of women’s rights and gender equality made in recent years have been put under immense pressure, if not entirely undone. Today Ukrainian women and girls are facing what may be the biggest challenge of their lives. Unlawful attacks on civilian facilities, including schools and hospitals, are depriving them of access to education and essential health services. The women and girls who have been forced to flee their homes have found themselves in situations that exacerbate inequality and vulnerability and have been confronted by sexual and gender-based violence. We are appalled by the reports of alleged sexual violence, which should be fully documented and properly investigated.”

  13. “We know that regional and subregional organizations have continued to play pivotal roles in their respective regions in the areas of peace and security and human rights and development, including in the implementation of the women and peace and security agenda. The role of regional organizations in matters related to the women and peace and security agenda has become increasingly important, given the magnitude and complexity of the challenges facing the international community today. Recent events in various countries and regions, such as Ukraine, Afghanistan, the Sudan, Myanmar and Mali, to name only a few, have shown how fragile the progress we have made in the field of women and peace and security continues to be.”

  14. “I thank Ms. Abu Ghazaleh for her briefing. I shall now make a statement in my capacity as the Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs of Albania. I would like to sincerely thank all the briefers and the Secretary-General for their statements and the very valuable information they provided at this meeting. We heard important, accurate and first-hand accounts from them, from different perspectives and regions, which feed into the collective efforts to implement the women and peace and security agenda. Yes, the right word is the implementation of a very robust normative framework. We have the resolutions. We need action. And we need more concrete and tangible results.”
