This report examines the implementation of UNSCR 1325, what it has accomplished, and its potential in Egypt, Iraq, Israel, the Palestinian territories, and Tunisia fifteen years after being passed by the United Nations Security Council.

Interviewees included female and male academics, activists, government officials, and non-governmental leaders. The report distils lessons and recommendations that are applicable to the Middle East and North Africa region and those relevant to particular nations.
