Adopted in 2000, UNSCR 1325 recognises the vital role of women in peacebuilding: more women in peace processes, protection from gender-based violence, and attention to post-conflict needs. ✨✊🏽 #WomenPeaceSecurity #UNSCR1325 #PeaceBuilding #WomenPeacePower #RNAP

In 1995, Nelson Mandela became a symbol of unity and reconciliation in post-apartheid South Africa. At AKWOS, we believe sport doesn't just build players - it bridges divides and builds peace. We carry this mission forward everyday🙌 #NelsonMandelaDay #NelsonMandela
