Abstract
Palestinian women's organized resistance to the Israeli occupation is decades old and has been well-documented and analysed by feminists in the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt) and outside. Some of the most recent attempts to formulate and shape this resistance make reference to UNSCR 1325. The application of the Resolution in the work of three women's organizations in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank and Palestinian–Israeli peace-making attempts are analysed in this paper. However, the paper concludes that the disconnects between women's activism on the ground and in academia, the intentions stated in UNSCR 1325, and the Israel–Palestine peace process are so vast that there is little evidence that the Resolution offers an effective mechanism for women to make their voices heard.
