The WPS-HA Compact is a global multistakeholder initiative that brings together Member States, UN entities, regional organizations, private sector actors, and civil society – including women-led organizations, youth-led organizations, and academic institutions to accelerate implementation of the WPS agenda and gender-responsive humanitarian action.
The 2025 WPS-HA Compact Accountability Report focuses on Prevention, Solidarity and Support, and Action.
In this milestone anniversary year marking 30 years of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action and 25 years of the Women, Peace and Security agenda, we salute the efforts of women’s rights advocates, women peacebuilders, governments, and institutions, that have ensured the growth and impact of this important work to create safe and peaceful communities, the world over. As we look ahead, we focus on Prevention, Solidarity and Support, and Action to address the root causes of conflicts and crises, unite in partnership across regions and generations, and to take action that is inclusive and transformative to advance the rights and freedoms of women and girls in all their diversity.
