Description

“I’m sick of reports,” Igballe (Igo) Rogova told a group of young women crowded around a wooden picnic table in Prishtina. “Just like I tell people: I’m sick of conferences on 1325 too.” As Executive Director of the Kosova Women’s Network (KWN), she had spoken at dozens of conferences in Brussels, Vienna, and Stockholm about United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace, and Security. This Resolution affirms the important role of women in preventing and resolving conflict, peace negotiations, peacekeeping, humanitarian assistance, and reconstruction. It calls for women’s equal participation in all efforts to further peace and security. “I’ll never go to another conference. You know why? Because it’s just words. You talk and talk and these high level people pretend to listen, but then they don’t take any action. Then you go to another conference on the same topic two months later and say the same things again. I’m sick and tired of talking to people who don’t listen. I want to see some action.” The women nodded sympathetically, and everyone took a sip of Peja beer. It was summertime, and they had gathered to discuss writing a report on the implementation of Resolution 1325 over the last ten years in Kosovo.
