Our Secure Future (OSF) Releases Findings on New Poll; Champions a Legislative Blueprint for Peace and Security in Asia

WASHINGTON, Our Secure Future has released its findings on a global poll about women's perspectives on security. Conducted with the Women's Alliance for Security Leadership/International Civil Society Action Network, the poll found that 82% of the women surveyed said that security discussions in their country do not represent them, and 80% said they do not feel adequately represented among security actors. In countries like South Korea, Japan, and China, women often face significant barriers to participating in peace and security efforts, despite their critical perspectives and contributions in the workplace, political spaces, and even at the home front. Achieving gender equality is laden with obstacles deeply rooted in cultural norms and systemic inequalities. However, across Asia, societies are paving the way for a more equitable future for everyone. Source: BERNAMA News Agency
