A police officer from the #UnitedNations peacekeeping mission in #Mali (un_minusma) discusses security issues with local women during a patrol in the Ménaka region. Women play a critical role in achieving lasting peace around the world, performing the same roles, to the same standards & under the same difficult conditions as their male counterparts. They help reduce conflict, serve as role models for women & girls, and are essential to building trust & forging strong relationships.
