The impact of women’s participation on peace and security outcomes remains poorly understood. For example, women made up just two percent of mediators and nine percent of negotiators in official peace talks between 1992 and 2011. Just two percent of funding dedicated to peace and security goes to gender equality or women’s empowerment. 

Educated women can participate in political discussions, development meetings and security decisions, and help form a government that equally represents and respects its citizens. Women’s inclusion helps prevent conflict, create peace, and sustain security after war ends. Denial of women's rights and women's respect in a nation means the dawn of a draconian and barbarian government by inhumane persons.  

Women's empowerment and gender equality are associated with peace and stability in society. Gender equality is a better indicator of a state’s peacefulness than other factors like democracy, religion, or GDP.
