La Commission de la condition de la femme a conclu aujourd\u2019hui [20 mars] sa 59e session annuelle par un accord avec les \u00c9tats membres des Nations Unies concernant les mesures pour stimuler ses initiatives en faveur de la promotion de l\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 des sexes et de l\u2019autonomisation des femmes.<\/p>\n

Les gouvernements participant \u00e0 la r\u00e9union ont convenu de nouvelles m\u00e9thodes de travail pour que la Commission continue \u00e0 fixer les normes relatives \u00e0 la D\u00e9claration et le Programme d\u2019action 1995 de Beijing et pour renforcer son r\u00f4le dans la formulation des politiques et la coordination d\u2019actions \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9chelle mondiale en mati\u00e8re de mise en \u0153uvre. Ils ont affirm\u00e9 les contributions essentielles de la Commission dans le fa\u00e7onnement du programme majeur de d\u00e9veloppement durable pour l\u2019apr\u00e8s-2015, dont l\u2019adoption par un sommet mondial de chefs d\u2019\u00c9tats et de gouvernements est pr\u00e9vue en septembre 2015.<\/p>\n

En tant qu\u2019organe principal des Nations Unies de promotion des engagements intergouvernementaux en faveur de l\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 des sexes et de suivi du Programme d\u2019action de Beijing, la Commission poursuivra l\u2019harmonisation de son travail avec celui du Conseil \u00e9conomique et social et du nouveau Forum politique de haut niveau des Nations Unies. Ceci renforcera les initiatives d\u2019int\u00e9gration de l\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 des sexes \u00e0 travers l\u2019ensemble des actions et des d\u00e9bats mondiaux sur le d\u00e9veloppement durable.<\/p>\n

Comme maintenant un grand nombre de membres de gouvernement participent \u00e0 la Commission, les \u00c9tats membres ont convenu de cr\u00e9er un segment minist\u00e9riel qui d\u00e9marrera lors de la prochaine session en 2016. Il est destin\u00e9 \u00e0 donner une plus grande visibilit\u00e9 aux pr\u00e9occupations actuelles et \u00e0 offrir des possibilit\u00e9s de d\u00e9montrer un engagement politique de haut niveau pour acc\u00e9l\u00e9rer les progr\u00e8s vers l\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 des sexes, l\u2019autonomisation des femmes et la r\u00e9alisation pleine des droits humains des femmes.<\/p>\n

F\u00e9licitant les \u00c9tats membres, la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 civile et le syst\u00e8me des Nations Unies pour \u00ab l\u2019\u00e9nergie, le dynamisme et la perspicacit\u00e9 de la session \u00bb, la directrice ex\u00e9cutive d\u2019 ONU Femmes, Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 dans son discours : \u00ab Nous sommes tous bien conscients qu\u2019il n\u2019y a pas de rem\u00e8de miracle pour la r\u00e9alisation de l\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 des sexes, de l\u2019autonomisation des femmes et des droits humains des femmes et des filles. Compte tenu du chemin que nous avons parcouru, nous savons que d\u2019autres d\u00e9fis nous attendent. Nous savons que nous devons continuer \u00e0 travailler, de mani\u00e8re syst\u00e9matique et sans rel\u00e2che, pour instaurer une transformation dans nos familles, nos soci\u00e9t\u00e9s, nos \u00e9conomies et nos espaces politiques et publics \u00bb, a-t-elle ajout\u00e9.<\/p>\n

Les gouvernements ont convenu de cibler davantage les efforts sur le th\u00e8me de l\u2019examen annuel de la Commission. Pour l\u2019avenir, des \u00e9tudes de cas d\u00e9montreront les enseignements qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 retir\u00e9s de la mise en \u0153uvre des engagements pris lors des sessions ant\u00e9rieures de la Commission . . . <\/p>\n

La 59e session comprenait un \u00e9ventail de tables rondes et de panels de haut niveau portant sur des sujets essentiels, depuis le renforcement des financements pour l\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 des sexes aux responsabilit\u00e9s des hommes et des gar\u00e7ons, en passant par une am\u00e9lioration des donn\u00e9es ventil\u00e9es par sexe. Les discussions sur les enseignements qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 retir\u00e9s des objectifs du Mill\u00e9naire pour le d\u00e9veloppement renforceront le fa\u00e7onnement du programme de d\u00e9veloppement pour l\u2019apr\u00e8s-2<\/p>\n

Does the UN advance equality for women?<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

The following article by Lyndal Rowlands in the Inter Press Service<\/a>, suggests that the UN is not making much progress on its commitments for women’s equality:<\/p>\n

2015 marks anniversaries for two significant commitments made to increasing women\u2019s participation at peace tables.<\/p>\n

Yet despite the Beijing Platform for Action and the Security Council Resolution 1325 both committing to increasing women\u2019s participation in peace building 20 and 15 years ago, respectively, there has been very little progress to report.<\/p>\n

The latest available statistics show that women made up only 9 per cent of negotiators at peace tables between 1992 and 2011. That the most recent data is from 2011 shows that more work is needed even in basic areas such as data collection and reporting of women\u2019s participation in peace building.<\/p>\n

IPS summarises here four reasons we should value women\u2019s participation at the peace table more, based on discussions at the 59th Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) over the past week.<\/p>\n

Beijing Platform for Action Section E<\/p>\n

Women and Armed Conflict Diagnosis<\/p>\n

Strategic objective E.1. Increase the participation of women in conflict resolution at decision-making levels and protect women living in situations of armed and other conflicts or under foreign occupation. Actions to be taken.<\/p>\n

Strategic objective E.2. Reduce excessive military expenditures and control the availability of armaments. Actions to be taken.<\/p>\n

Strategic objective E.3. Promote non-violent forms of conflict resolution and reduce the incidence of human rights abuse in conflict situations. Actions to be taken.<\/p>\n

Strategic objective E.4. Promote women’s contribution to fostering a culture of peace. Actions to be taken<\/p>\n

Strategic objective E.5. Provide protection, assistance and training to refugee women, other displaced women in need of international protection and internally displaced women. Actions to be taken.<\/p>\n

Strategic objective E.6. Provide assistance to the women of the colonies and non-self-governing territories. Actions to be taken.
\nWomen Bring Commitment and Experience to the Peace Table
\nOften the first people invited to participate in formal peace negotiations are the people holding the guns and the last are women who have expertise in building lasting peace.<\/p>\n

Zainab Bangura, Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Sexual Violence in Conflict, told a CSW side event on Tuesday last week, \u201cIn the Central African Republic, the only community where they were not killing each other was a community where the Christian women said, \u2018These Muslim women are our sisters.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy? Because the women in the community said, \u2018We have lived together for the last 100 years\u2019,\u201d Bangura said.<\/p>\n

In the Phillipines, Irene Santiago was a member of the government panel that negotiated peace with the Moro Islamic Liberation Front. Santiago came to the table with years of experience working with Christian, Muslim and Indigenous women leaders for peace.<\/p>\n

Speaking at a CSW side event at the International Peace Institute (IPI) on Thursday, Santiago said that she knew that her years of experience working with civil society for peace stood her in good stead to make a significant contribution to formal peace negotiations, which she did.<\/p>\n

Speaking with IPS, Santiago said women\u2019s voices not only have to be heard, but that they also have to be acted on.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor women. It\u2019s almost never always about themselves, it\u2019s always about our children, our husbands but also about our communities,\u201d Santiago told IPS.<\/p>\n

In Africa, women have fought to be included in peacemaking, even when their contributions have not been recognised.<\/p>\n

Bineta Diop, Special Envoy on Women Peace and Security to the African Union, says that mediators need to be held accountable when they only invite the people who hold guns to the peace table and ignore women\u2019s contributions.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have been involved in many crises where women were knocking at the door and saying we want to be at the table,\u201d Diop said.<\/p>\n

Ambassador Anwarul Chowdhury, known as the father of Security Council Resolution 1325, said that the determination of African women to be involved in peace negotiations should be seen as an inspiration by other countries.<\/p>\n

Despite serious difficulties, war and conflict, African women have shown continued determination to hold their countries accountable, Chowdhury said.<\/p>\n

Gender Equality in Peace Time Prevents Conflict
\nAlso speaking at the IPI, Valerie Hudson, co-author of \u2018Sex and World Peace\u2019, said that her research has shown that the way women are treated within a country is one of the most accurate indicators of the quality of relations that country will have with other countries.<\/p>\n

Diop agreed with Hudson, saying that countries that are likely to fall into conflict have higher levels of discrimination and inequality.<\/p>\n

\u201cDiscrimination against women, especially the non-participation and non-inclusion of women in democracy is \u2026 one of the root causes of the conflict,\u201d Diop said.<\/p>\n

Ambassador Choudhury agreed with these sentiments, telling IPS, \u201cI believe that no country can claim that their country is not in conflict if women\u2019s rights are denied, if women\u2019s equality is not ensured, if women\u2019s participation at all participation levels is not there.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think that if we women are violated, if women\u2019s equality of participation is not there we cannot say that we are at peace, we are in conflict with ourselves. This is a conflict which is happening within ourselves and within the countries. We don\u2019t have to go into the traditional description of conflict, civil conflict or fighting with another country,\u201d Chowdhury added.<\/p>\n

Dr. Youssef Mahmoud, Senior Adviser at the International Peace Institute also speaking at the IPI event said, \u201cA world where 51 per cent are ignored is a dangerous world for everyone. I can\u2019t imagine why any men would be indifferent to this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Women Are Active In Civil Society
\nSeveral discussions at the CSW questioned why militaries were the primary actors in peace building, while non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and civil society\u2019s expertise was not called on.<\/p>\n

\nSantiago told IPS that civil society, especially women, have a lot to contribute to humanise, to concretise, and to make peace negotiations relevant to people\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n

Winnie Kodi from the Nuba mountains in Sudan told reporters on Monday that civil society was vital to helping indigenous communities like her own that have been affected by conflict. She said that the main way her people were able to have their voices heard was by working together with NGOs and civil society.<\/p>\n

Chowdhury told IPS he is advocating for the U.N. and governments to hold more consultations with civil society, saying that the involvement of women and of civil society is very important.<\/p>\n

Santiago also called for renewed focus on the important role of NGOs in the area of women, peace and security,<\/p>\n

\u201cAgain I see that why are we focusing on the UN as the locus of change,\u201d she said. \u201cTo me it is not, it is the means, it is an important audience, but it is not the locus of social change.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet us form the global civic networks that we need to bring about the local global and civil change that we need\u201d Santiago said.<\/p>\n

Women Challenge The Causes of Conflict
\nChallenging militarism and militarisation was another theme discussed during the first week of the CSW, particularly by civil society groups at the parallel NGO forum.<\/p>\n

Choudhury told IPS that increased militarism and militarisation is slowing down efforts for equality. \u201cIncreasing militarism and militarisation has really been effecting women in a very negative way. This is something that women should stand up against, we should all stand up against,\u201d Chowdhury said.<\/p>\n

Militarisation is also affecting indigenous women and men. Maribeth Biano, from the Asian Indigenous Women\u2019s Network, told reporters on Monday that Indigenous women are hugely affected by militarisation in Indigenous territories.
