description This project aims to examine the effectiveness of implementing the women, peace, and security (WPS) agenda in Libya during the armed conflict and through continuous political instability. After the 2011 uprising that took place, Libya has gone through several civil wars, which led the UN Security Council (UNSC) to dedicate a special mission to mediate the armed conflict and facilitate the democratic transition period while ensuring inclusivity. Also, the mission’s mandate is to pay attention to social inequalities and use a gender-sensitive approach to build peace again in Libya and ensure its sustainability. I am particularly interested in researching and assessing the implementation of the women, peace, and security agenda, which is mainly facilitated through the UN system. The agenda is concerned with including women in all decision making levels through political participation, prevention of conflict, protection from conflict, and the relief and recovery of women throughout the ongoing peace-building and political processes in Libya. Thus, how effective are the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) and the United Nations Special Mission in Libya (UNSMIL)’s work in implementing the women, peace, and security agenda in Libya?
