MONTHLY ACTION POINTS
ON WOMEN, PEACE AND SECURITY
SECURITY COUNCIL: JULY 2011
_______________________________________________________

Dear colleagues, The NGO Working Group on Women, Peace and Security has released the July 2011 version of our Monthly Action Points (MAP) on Women, Peace and Security for the UN Security Council: http://womenpeacesecurity.org/media/pdf-MAP_July2011.pdf

For July, in which Germany has the Security Council presidency, the MAP provides recommendations on country situations including: Afghanistan, Cote d'Ivoire, Sudan, South Sudan, and West Africa and Sierra Leone. The July MAP also points to necessary steps in the Council's implementation of its Women, Peace and Security commitments. About the MAP project: The NGO Working Group on Women, Peace and Security produces Monthly Action Points, a series of recommendations that show how each United Nations Security Council President can provide leadership on, and how the Security Council as a whole can systematically meet its obligations to women in conflict. These briefs are designed for Security Council Members, civil society actors, Member States, and UN entities. We look forward to your feedback and input. Please distribute widely. All previous MAPs are available on our website: http://www.womenpeacesecurity.org/

Information and previous MAP points on specific country situations as well as NGOWG Member resources are available on our website: http://www.womenpeacesecurity.org/rapid-response/

The MAP for July is available in English, with additional languages forthcoming.
