The UNPoA was born gender-blind, with only one mention of “women and the elderly in 2001.”
It lacked details on preventing and responding to this impact.
Over the last decade, efforts to align the UNPoA with the 2030 & WPS agendas have added gender-related provisions. #RevCon4

Finally.
It must be implemented, indeed.
"The Security Council just approved a long-awaited resolution on Gaza, demanding an immediate ceasefire, and the immediate & unconditional release of all hostages.
This resolution must be implemented. Failure would be unforgivable."
