Abstract

Turkey is a significant ally of the UN, NATO, and the OSCE, and alliances require The Turkish Armed Forces (TAF) to develop policies sensitive to the WPS agenda. As we celebrate the 20th anniversary of UNSCR 1325, it is crucial to consider increasing women's participation in Turkish peacekeeping and defense policies.
