OSCE co-ordinator of economic and environmental activities: UK response

I would like to pick up on three of the themes you have mentioned. First, on women’s economic empowerment and the wider issue of gender equality. In this week we reflect again on the impact gender inequality can have on economic and environmental affairs. At the first Economic and Environmental Forum (EEF) preparatory meeting this year we heard how women are economically disempowered, through gender stereotypes limiting job and training options; practices in the workplace that disadvantage women; through companies not paying women and men equally for doing the same job; or through employers limiting the financial and career prospects of women who have children. The UK shares your – and the Swedish Chairpersonship’s – assessment that empowering women is key to achieving security and stability.

OSCE security dialogue on women, peace and security: UK statement

10 March 2021 (Speaker s notes, may differ from delivered version) Thank you Madame Chair for dedicating this Joint FSC/PC Security Dialogue to the important topic of UNSCR 1325 on Women, Peace and Security. Thanks also to our speakers for their excellent presentations, which serve to reinforce the importance of gender equality in achieving sustainable peace and security. This morning we have an important opportunity to capitalise on the momentum generated at OSCE last year around the Resolution’s 20th anniversary, to recognise the remaining implementation gaps, and work together through the Forum for Security Co-operation (FSC) to promote the further implementation of this landmark Resolution.
