In the strategic assessment on Mali, the Council should call for dedicated gender capacity and analysis in order to inform the outcomes of the process (SCR 1960 (2010), OP 13). In its field mission to Mali, Council members should meet with local women and women’s organizations and consider gender as a cross-cutting issue throughout its mission (SCR 2122 (2013), OP 6). In its ongoing consideration of the situation, the Council should call on the Government of Mali to promote women’s full and effective participation in all peace processes at both the local and state level, including through the consultation of women’s civil society groups.
