Our Secure Future

Our Secure Future (OSF) works to strengthen the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda to build a more peaceful world through ensuring women’s full participation in governance. Three key areas of opportunity to strengthen the global Women, Peace and Security agenda are: Amplifying women’s voices, Strengthening the global network of women peacebuilders, Promoting committed action by multiple stakeholders to turn policy into practice Some of the ways we do this are through the Women, Peace and Security Congressional Caucus, civil society consultations with the Executive Branch, and producing original research and policy briefs. Increasing the participation of women in decision-making and the use of a gender perspective in international peace and security are critical to achieving peace through governance.
