One of UN Women’s main programs is to work on Women, Peace and Security (WPS). WPS program focuses on the strengthening of women’s roles in conflict resolution and peace building at grassroots level and women’s involvement on formal peace process and higher-level decision-making. UN Women takes different forms of approach to foster Women, Peace and Security agenda such as facilitating development of policies, capacity building of key stakeholders, and developing different public campaign materials to raise awareness about UN SCR 1325 on Women, Peace and Security. The latter aims to increase greater awareness among related stakeholders and wider public about the need to address women’s participation in conflict resolution and peace building.
 
In November 2011, UN Women and the Government of Norway signed a partnership agreement for a program entitled the Development of National Action Plan (NAP) on Women Peace and Security. The main goal of the program is ensuring peace building processes and post-conflict governance in Indonesia support gender quality.
 
The project supports development of National Action plan through activities in the area of advocacy and outreach, creating strengthening partnership, raising awareness and building capacity, as well as facilitating a series of consultation and public hearings with the goal of enhancing women’s human right and their participation in the peace processes. These activities have been implemented since 2011 through close collaboration with the Ministry of Women’s Empowerment and other key line ministries, also with participation of civil society including women’s groups.
 
 
Through facilitation of this project, the Government of Indonesia endorsed the National Action Plan (NAP) for Women Peace and Security through Decree of Ministry of People’s Welfare No. 7/2008 on Protection and Empowerment of Women and Children in Social Conflict. The NAP was developed by a team that comprises of government and CSO representatives through process of consultation and public hearing. The National Action Plan contains a number of programs that the Government should implement systematically through inter-ministerial coordination mechanism to ensure the protection of women’s rights in social conflict and promoting their roles in maintaining peace.
 
The project also operates at two pilot provinces namely Aceh and Papua through a number of activities including capacity building of key stakeholders on 1325, raising awareness of government and community about women’s participation in resolving conflict, establishing community based mechanism for EVAW, strengthening capacity of women peacemakers and developing knowledge and communication products pertaining to Women Peace and Security.
