Women, Peace, and Security | Promoting Stability and Gender Equality in Africa

The Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) initiatives supported by U.S. Africa Command focus on enhancing security and stability throughout Africa through gender-inclusive approaches.

The programs actively encourage women's participation in security and peacebuilding efforts, tapping into their distinctive insights. By recognizing the crucial role women's perspectives play in conflict prevention and peace maintenance across the continent, the WPS program prioritizes the safety of civilians, particularly women and girls, during security operations. Advocating for gender equality within defense institutions and operations fosters an inclusive and diverse environment.

Through collaborative efforts between the United States and African nations, our Women, Peace, and Security programs play a pivotal role in fostering stability and advancing gender equality across the continent.
