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

Tackling illicit #SALW is one of the most critical tools to torrefy #CRSV.
I urge the women & peace & security experts to engage & collaborate closely in the Review Conference in June to advance gender-responsive arms control.
#CRSV is not an inevitable consequence of conflict. – at Manhattan, NY

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."
