E. Women and armed conflict 29. The focus under this critical area of concern should be on actions to be taken by the United Nations system consistent with the Charter of the United Nations in order to protect women who are victims or who are at risk of becoming victims, of armed conflict from violence and abuse. 30. Measures should be further elaborated to raise awareness of women’s rights in armed conflict, and should be applied, inter alia, in the training of police, military personnel, health workers, teachers and managers of camps for refugee/displaced persons. 31.

As regards women in the rural sector, as reflected in paragraphs 137 and 138 of the system-wide medium-term plan, there should be more emphasis on the concepts contained in the Platform for Action, in particular paragraph 166 (c). 38.
