Aisha Jumwa, Cabinet Secretary for Public Service, Affirmative Action, and Gender, will address the United Nations Security Council on Tuesday in New York, United States.
CS Jumwa, who is accompanied by Second Lady Dorcas Rigathi, Cabinet Secretary Mercy Wanjau, and a delegation of women leaders, will address the council during an Open Debate on Women, Peace, and Security.
This is CJ Jumwa's first major speech outside the country since being appointed to the Cabinet.
The meeting will allow member states to reaffirm the importance of Resolution 1325, which established the WPS agenda at the Council in 2000, to assess progress since the agenda's 20th anniversary in 2020, and to set goals for the agenda's 25th anniversary in 2025.
Members are expected to emphasize the importance of women's full, equal, and meaningful participation in all stages of peace processes and peacekeeping at this year's convention.
