I In 2016, over 70 Yemeni women leaders collaborated to develop the Yemeni Women’s Agenda for Peace and Security (WPS National Agenda)—a policy-oriented document outlining key recommendations for inclusive peace, justice, and post-conflict recovery in Yemen. Addressed to the UN Security Council, peace process facilitators, and international actors, the agenda proposes a 30% quota for women’s participation, the protection of women and girls from gender-based violence, disarmament initiatives, economic inclusion, and transitional justice mechanisms that consider gender dimensions. It also underscores the importance of integrating the needs of women and children into peace negotiations, humanitarian aid, and reconstruction plans, in line with UN Security Council Resolutions 1325 and 2242. Recognized by the UN Security Council in June 2017, the agenda remains a reference point for efforts aimed at achieving inclusive and lasting peace in Yemen. The full document outlines Yemeni women’s contributions to peacebuilding and efforts toward gender equality.
