* Cleveland LEADS: Leadership, Exchange, and Diplomacy Scholars
Program
In October 2020, the world will mark the 20th anniversary of the
landmark?Security Council Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and
Security,?which addressed the importance of women’s political
participation for sustainable peace, among other issues.
This anniversary comes as the coronavirus pandemic continues to
upend lives around the globe. For women, these affects are
especially acute. In countries both industrialized and developed,
women are facing multiple threats – physical, emotional, sexual, and
psychological – and even worse in situations of conflict and
humanitarian crises; and job loss and economic instability.
Complicating matters is the fact that women often have little to no
advocates when it comes to making crucial decisions that affect
their lives ? women make up only 10 percent of national leaders.
What is the situation for women globally? And how has it impacted
women’s political leadership? What will women’s political demands be
worldwide as we cautiously move into a “new normal?” Will anything
change?
