3 In Liberia, over 20,000 women ex-combatants were identified in the disarmament, demobilization and reintegration process in 2004.
4 A concrete example of this can be cited from Liberia, where the increasing recruitment of women into the Liberian Police Service, and investments in training and building the capacity of these women officers is contributing to greater focus overall by the Police Service on addressing gender-related crimes such as sexual violence.
5 Evidence of this is provided through the large volume of applications received for the African Women’s Fellowship programme initiated by King’s College, University of London, which provides Fellowship opportunities to three African women each year to engage in research related to peace and security studies.
7 This effort will support implementation of the outcomes of the Wilton Park Conference convened in May 2008 on the theme of: “Women targeted or affected by Armed Conflict: What role for Military Peacekeepers?”
