The Highs and Lows of Women, Peace and Security in 2024, and Looking Ahead to 2025

  • Olivia Parsons, Phoebe Donnelly, and Evyn Papworth

Summary

While 2024 does not stand out as a seminal year for women’s rights, it did yield policy advancements within the women, peace, and security (WPS) agenda. These include new language in United Nations (UN) Security Council resolutions, particularly in the context of UN peace operations; global commitments that either focus on or include language to advance WPS; and national and global policies that address emerging challenges to gender equality in the digital space.
