Commentary
This is the Czech Republic's first Action Plan. It is currently involved in multiple conflicts as a member of NATO. Since its split with Slovakia in 1993, citizens, particularly women are still facing the risk of discrimination and GBSV.
Civil society
The Action Plan had been developed through the participation of representatives of Civil Society Organisations and other actors. And one measure of the Action Plan refers to the greater integration between the military and police task forces and the non-governmental sector.
Women in Peacekeeping
The Czech Republic Action Plan is actively trying to support the increased representation of women in the military and police forces through monitoring the data of men and women entering the security sector, and by promoting this through colleges and universities, too.
