Women Peace and Security (WPS)

The Gender Mainstreaming Strategy and its implementations contributes towards addressing key issues such as Gender-Based Violence (GBV), masculinities, and discrimination, and strengthening women’s meaningful representation and participation in the security sector in Lesotho. The UNW and its partners enabled consultations with various government stakeholders and Civil Society Organisations and invited leaders from SADC Countries such as South Africa, Namibia to dialogue on the WPS Agenda and developing a National Action Plan. The consultations provided a foundation towards the development of Lesotho’s NAP on WPS.
