Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1325. Building international peace and security requires women’s participation and leadership. It is critical to celebrate these moments, while also taking stock of progress. The lectureship highlighted key areas of impact and pushed for continued effort in reaching these shared global visions.
As part of USIP’s focus on building the role of women in the peaceful resolution of conflicts worldwide, the Institute named the series of commemorative lectureships for Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak Al Ketbi, the wife of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, Founder and First President of the United Arab Emirates.
