A report by the Irish Joint Consortium on Gender Based Violence.

This report built on the work of INSTRAW (2005), the experience of other countries, consulted with with Irish domestic organisations and uniquely charts out a consultative process for the development of an Irish National Action Plan on UNSCR 1325.

The report confirms that existing NAPs have made a difference in advancing gender equality persepctives in foreign, security and development cooperation policies and are considered to be key tools in the implementation of such policies.
