If the State does not provide this sense of safety, people can withdraw from their civic obligations too. (...) Access to education, health, transport, housing and other public services has long promoted both individual resilience and political legitimacy for Governments. How ever, to provide a platform for a lifetime of productive and secure employment, education systems must provide indemand skills and training, robust pathways to the labour market for all, as well as opportunities for life-long learning. Healthcare systems that provide universal access to quality basic services are the first line of defense against poverty, especially in the face of a global pandemic.

** Peacekeeping
And on this International Women’s Day, our peacekeeping colleagues report that Bangladesh, for the first time, is deploying four justice government-provided personnel (GPPs), all of them are women. (...) Bangladesh responded to a call for nominations for women justice officers, thereby helping to achieve gender parity goals for government-provided personnel in line with DPO’s (Department of Peace Operations) Uniformed Gender Parity Strategy.
** Myanmar
And moving on to Myanmar, where the UN team there said that women across the country are once again demonstrating their leadership and agency following more than one month of political instability and violence.
(...) Also, this week, the Mission is also completing the deployment of election materials in all 16 prefectures. And the Mission is providing security in the context of the elections.
** Paraguay
A couple of a few more notes: In Paraguay, over the weekend, the country’s Resident Coordinator, Mario Samaja, and our team there expressed deep concern over the violence that took place on Friday in the capital, Asunción.

NSA Declarations
In April 1995, the five NPT nuclear-weapon
states provided pledges on NSAs to non-
nuclear-weapon States parties of the NPT.
These unilateral declarations were reflected
in Security Council resolution 984 (1995),
which also welcomed the intention of
certain States that they would support and
provide assistance to any non-nuclear-
weapon State that became a victim or was
threatened by acts of aggression in which
nuclear weapons were used, so-called
“positive security assurances.” (...) In contrast, the five treaties establishing nuclear-weapon-free zones (NWFZs) in inhabited regions,
include inter alia protocols for the nuclear-weapon States to provide legally binding negative security
assurances to the zonal States, even though the nuclear-weapon States have attached exceptions and
conditions to them.
