More women contributing more to global peace efforts: another result from the #ElsieFund. ☝️In 2024, EIF supported 3 GSU deployments from #Ghana & #Senegal, to MONUSCO & UNIFIL. Rising instability and evolving needs means #InclusivePeacekeeping is increasingly urgent.

In 2024, 540 personnel (109 women,431 men) were trained on gender issues + preventing sexual exploitation and abuse ahead of deployment. Stronger capacity of personnel leads to better UN Peacekeeping for the communities they serve. Another #ElsieFund result. #WPS

Increasing awareness of UN Peacekeeping opportunities and criteria removes barriers to participation AND enables more talent to contribute. In 2024 #EIF-funded TCCs engaged 700+ military personnel to promote #InclusivePeacekeeping. Ejército del Uruguay
