"I believe there is a need to include more women in the prevention, mediation and resolution of conflicts. To this end, the EU and Member States should include more women in the military, both in leadership positions and on the ground. It is crucial to have high-ranking women officers from a gender equality perspective, but it is also very important to have women in civilian operations because they liaise better with local women. In the peace-building phase, the participation of women is crucial because, as pillars of the community, women are much more attuned to societal and practical needs than men: it is the women who spend most of their time in the villages or towns and therefore have more knowledge of the practical necessities which should be included in the peace-building projects, such as market infrastructure, health clinics, accessible schooling systems, etc. That is why I voted in favour."@en1
