About US ⇒
The Women’s Situation Room WSR is a neutral, non-partisan mechanism that
mobilizes women and youth to promote peaceful and democratic electoral
processes. The WSR also promotes the enhanced participation of women in peace
building in line with the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325.
Founded by The Angie Brooks International Centre in Liberia, the WSR was first
implemented in 2011 during the presidential elections in Liberia. It has,
since then, been replicated in Uganda in 2016 and in other African countries
including Senegal, Sierra Leone, Kenya, Nigeria and Ghana. It has been
acknowledged as an effective mechanism for promoting peaceful elections by the
United Nations Security Council and by the African Union, which requested that
the WSR be implemented in all African elections.
The WSR involves all electoral stakeholders in consultative engagements to
ensure peace before, during and after elections. It includes a physical
Situation Room where women are involved in advocacy for peace; political and
legal analysis of the situation; and interventions that may include mediation
to avert conflict.
The overall objective of the WSR Uganda 2021 is to promote the full and active
participation of women and youth in ensuring peaceful elections and to
contribute to the strengthening and refinement of the WSR mechanism for
ensuring peace in African elections. The Women’s Situation Room Uganda will be
hosted by Uganda Women’s Network UWONET; with the Women’s International
Peace Centre serving as the WSR Secretariat.
