On 31 October 2000, the United Nations Security Council unanimously adopted landmark Resolution 1325 (UNSCR 1325). In it, the Security Council acknowledged not only the disproportionate impact of armed conflict on women, but also the importance of the role of women in peace building, peace negotiations, and conflict resolution. UNSCR 1325 was followed by the adoption of eight Security Council Resolutions, dealing with specific issues of concern to women before, during and after conflict. Together, these resolutions are called the United Nations Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) Agenda.
