UNSCR 1325: 15 year review
- Nahla Valji: Briefing Paper 6/2015: UNSCR 2242 on Women, Peace and Security: Critical Elements and Progress
- Women and Peace Agreement Database (PA-X Women)
We are pleased and proud to launch our new database available at www.peaceagreements.org. This database lists all the peace agreements between 1990 and present day which have provisions on women, gender or sexual violence, and provides full search features for what those provisions deal with. Acknowledgements and Definitions will be posted for our launch on Thursday.
This database comprises part of PA-X, a peace agreement database which is intended to operate as a Peace Agreement Access Tool. This database will give access to a definitive collection of peace agreements from 1990 to present day, which at present comprise around 1200 peace agreements in around 100 jurisdictions. Its purpose is to enable research on peace agreement provisions, and to support those engaging in peace processes to access comparative information on how peace agreements deal with core issues of inclusion, human rights, and development. The full database is scheduled for publication at the start of 2017. The Women and Peace Agreement Database (PA-X Women) is a sub-database of all the agreements which include an explicit reference to women and gender, with searchable sub-categories.
Edinburgh LAUNCH DATE: 26 November 2015, to coincide with the Chyrstal MacMillan lecture and the Women, Peace and Security workshop.
