Jordanian National Action Plan (JONAP I) for the Implementation of the UN SCr 1325 on Women, Peace and Security paved the way for unprecedented high-level results in Jordan’s security sector, mainly in the Jordan Armed Forces (JAF) and Public Security Directorate (PSD) as result of UN Women’s technical support and policy advice leveraging the partnership with security sector actors as well as with women’s machinery in Jordan such as Jordanian National Commission for Women (JNCW) and Inter-Ministerial Committee for Women’s Empowerment (IMC). The percentage of national security sector personnel – comprising JAF and PSD [1] – who are women increased by 2.2 percentage points across all security institutions in Jordan with the UN Women’s technical and policy support in partnership with JAF and PSD through the holistic implementation of the signed MOUs and work plans. JAF increased women’s representation from 1.3 per cent of field officers in 2017 to 2 per cent in 2022 which is a great achievement in army given the complex environment for women’s admission and retention, while PSD exceeded its 5.68 per cent target, reaching 6.1 per cent of officers and 6.2 per cent of personnel. The percentage of women deployed in peacekeeping missions also increased substantially – from 8.65 per cent in 2018, at the beginning of JONAP, to 11.5 per cent by the end of 2022. In light of this, the security sector is now more responsive to the needs and priorities of women, as well as to their entry, advancement and leadership. This has been possible following extensive awareness-raising, capacity-building and gender mainstreaming efforts that were delivered under JONAP. Significant outcomes achieved regarding women’s meaningful participation in security sector has fully contributed to achieve the SDGs 5 and 16 for gender equal and more sustainable peacebuilding in Jordan. The outstanding achievement ofJONAP I has led the way to the preparation for second JONAP which is expected to be finalized and adopted by the Government of Jordan in 2023.Disclaimer and notes
