Burundi has developed his 3 rd generation of 1325 Resolution for 5 years (2022-2027) in 2022. The national action plan is is designed to address 6 main areas of focus, of which: 4 are related to the pillars of Resolution 1325; prevention, participation, protection and economic recovery. The NAP detailed also 2 other pillars related to its promotion, its financing as well as the coordination and monitoring and evaluation of stakeholders. The framework document is developed into 10 objectives that can be achieved through the attainment of 18 results based on the 4 pillars of 1325R. In terms of representation, Burundi is a country with a 30% quota for women's representation in the constitution. The picture of women's representation at the national level is set as follows with the national elections of 2022: At the Government level, 5 ministers out of 15 (i.e. 33,33%) in 2021. Women Ministers are in charge of the Ministries of (1) Justice, (2) National Solidarity, Social Affairs, Human Rights and Gender, (3) Trade, Transport, Industry and Tourism, (4) Public Health and the Fight against AIDS, (5) Communication, Information Technology and the Media. At the level of the Senate, 41.03% are women, while this rate is 39.02% at the National Assembly. At the level of communal councils, 34% are women and 36% are communal administrators. At the hill level, hill elections are the only elections for which the representation quota is not transcribed in the code. Of the 2683 hills, 20% are women hill councils and the rate of women hill councillors is 8%. During 2022, national elections of hill notables were organized. 27.69% of this structure are women and more than 70% of these women come from women mediators' network. This rate of women (1) fills the gap in women's representation in decision making at the lowest level of the hill community. Indeed, the representation rate for more than 10 years has remained below 10%. Thus, it will also serve to (2) influence the inclusion of women's needs into all priotities and planification at the community level. In 2022, the implementation environment of R1325 was achieved At normative level , through the dissemination of the 1325 Resolution and its National Action Plan to more than 1000 Burundian women from the high decision-making sphere, including elected women, communal administrators, women ministers, women elected at the hill level, women from political parties, women from the private sector, and women from the private sector, Women from political parties, women from the administration - justice, health, education, and women actors at the community level (from the National Women's Forum, civil society,) taking care to include women with albinism, disabilities, and Twa ethnic minorities so as not to leave anyone behind. On operational level , UN Women has, through the support of governmental and UN partners, CSOs and gender actors, strengthened the capacities of women at all levels for greater accountability to R1325 and its annual plan. The themes of peace and social cohesion, empowerment and development and especially rights and the fight against violence against women and girls, leadership and governance were developed through forums and strategic advocacy under the leadership of the Office of the First Lady of Burundi, the Office of the Ombudsman and the Ministry of Interior to the President of the Republic and the decision makers. At the coordination level UN Women has strengthened the revitalization of the thematic groups in connection with Resolution 1325 and its national action plan 2022-2027 and the gender sectoral group through the Ministry having gender in its attributions. The most important recommendations expressed to strengthen the environment for women for peace and security aim to : Increase investments for women's survival and well-being in health and nutrition including social protection, education, water and sanitation, agriculture and livestock. Continue to integrate lessons on sexual and reproductive health of adolescents and youth, immunization, and promotion of good nutrition into the basic, post-basic, and university curricula Ensure the recruitment and equitable distribution of available Human Resources in general Promote the role of women as food production actors and persons in charge of nutrition and household health in order to bring about perceptible changes in the fight against malnutrition and food and social insecurity. Develop income-generating activities during the lean season with a promotion of entrepreneurship as an important lever to ensure income throughout the year. Contribute to the empowerment of community actors (mamans lights, health agents, agronomists etc) by strengthening their capacities (materials, equipment, training) in order to enable them to continue prevention, care and promotion of good health and nutrition at hill and household level; Among important décisions Women leaders and actors for the implementation of R1325 have committed to, was : Restitute on the knowledge on women rights, governance, social cohesion, conflict prevention and resolution and leadership, at the level of associations, women's cooperatives and solidarity groups of young girls at all levels. Strengthen networking between women's organizations and the administration for a better contribution of women to conflict prevention and resolution Mobilize women to join cooperatives, savings and credit solidarity groups and to create income-generating activities in the agroforestry and fisheries value chains in order to empower them; Increase commitment to resilient and sustainable activities contributing to the improvement of economic status and strategic leader positions, including vulnerable groups for the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals; Promote intergenerational dialogue by addressing "taboo" topics that pose a threat to the sexual and reproductive health of adolescents and youth esp.
