Abstract
The 21st anniversary of UNSCR 1325 presents an opportunity to consider how far the resolution's objectives are being met and also to reflect on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the WPS agenda. As reported by the UN already in 2020, not only is gender-based violence on the rise globally but also that the pandemic is likely to lead to around 47 million females being pushed into poverty (UN Women, 2020).
