On 31 October 2000, the United Nations Security Council adopted the landmark Resolution 1325, recognising the central role women play in peacebuilding and conflict resolution, and giving birth to the Women, Peace and Security Agenda.  

Over 20 years after UNSCR 1325, what have we achieved, what have we learnt, and what more can we do?  

Host of She Stands for Peace, Dr Yemisi Akinbobola, will be asking these questions and more from key actors in the implementation of the Women, Peace and Security Agenda in Africa. 

Season Three is coming out soon and her guests work in grassroots, they are thought leaders and experts, sharing their reflections and best practices.
