Norway's strategic plan 2011-13: Women, Peace and Security
The participation of women in key decision-making processes related to peace and security is a goal in itself. Their contribution is also important in preventing, managing and resolving conflict, and not least in building up societies after conflict. This new strategic plan on women, peace and security is intended to put Norway in a better position to enhance women’s influence and participation and strengthen the protection of women during armed conflicts.
