The meeting will take place virtually and forms part of the Council\u2019s continued engagement with the implementation of the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda across Africa.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Following opening remarks by Almon Mahlaba Mamba, Permanent Representative of the Kingdom of Eswatini to the African Union and Chairperson of the PSC for March 2026, Bankole Adeoye, Commissioner for Political Affairs, Peace and Security, will deliver introductory remarks. Liberata Mulamula, Special Envoy of the Chairperson of the AU Commission on Women, Peace and Security (WPS), is also expected to make a presentation to the Council, followed by a statement from Justice Effie Ewuor, Co-Chair of FemWise-Africa, and a presentation by the Representative of UN Women. Additionally, statements are also expected from PSC Members, AU Member States, and Regional Economic Communities\/Regional Mechanisms (RECs\/RMs).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The 1334th session continues the PSC\u2019s institutionalised engagement with the WPS agenda, formalised as a standing item at its 223rd meeting in March 2010. Since institutionalising the WPS agenda, the PSC has convened 28 dedicated sessions, with this 1334th meeting extending its thematic scope to women\u2019s leadership against AI and technology-facilitated violence. While the Council has made evident progress through thematic expansions, encompassing women\u2019s roles in preventing violent extremism, displacement\/refugee protection, media accountability, economic integration, and WPS linkages to the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), these advances remain ad hoc and inconsistent.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The session convenes amid a sharply deteriorating continental peace and security landscape, marked by protracted conflicts in Sudan, eastern DRC, the Sahel,&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amaniafrica-et.org\/women-peace-and-security-womens-leadership-in-addressing-emerging-threats-to-peace-and-security-artificial-intelligence-and-technology-facilitated-violence\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WOMEN, PEACE AND SECURITY: Women\u2019s Leadership in Addressing Emerging Threats to Peace and Security: Artificial&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":221159,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/amaniafrica-et.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/WPS.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[57],"class_list":["post-221158","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-security"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/221158"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=221158"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/221158\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":221160,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/221158\/revisions\/221160"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/221159"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=221158"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=221158"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=221158"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
