Norway

Norway commits to implementing its fourth National action plan for WPS with higher goals, improved results framework for annual reporting.

In 2015, Norway committed to provide funding to the Global Alliance of Women Countering Extremism and Promoting Peace, Rights and Pluralism.

We continue to increase the number of female Norwegian soldiers and officers, both in our standing military forces and our contributions to international operations. The next two commanders of Norway’s national command in Afghanistan will be women.
