A key priority is strengthening the role of national and local organizations \u2014 and of the Initiative Group itself \u2014 in the systematic monitoring of the current Programme, including through data collection, trend analysis and identification of gaps. Civil society expertise must be leveraged not only to track progress, but also to shape the monitoring indicators for the next national framework on Women, Peace and Security. Integrating these perspectives will enable more coherent, evidence-based and sustainable policies.<\/p><cite>Cristina Lesnic, Director of I4DD<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following the meeting, the WPS Initiative Group agreed on several actions aimed at enhancing human and community security through the lens of NAP 1325.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The event was the first activity carried out under the project <strong>\u201cGROWING A SAFER MOLDOVA\u201d<\/strong> , implemented by the Institute for Democracy and Development within the BREN II programme, with the support of the Institute for War &amp; Peace Reporting (IWPR) and the UK Government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The project aims to strengthen institutional security and resilience in the Republic of Moldova by enhancing the capacities, coordination and preparedness of key actors.
