Chief Inspector Doreen Malambo of the Zambia Police was the 2020 UN Woman Police Officer of the Year.
Chief Inspector Malambo is a Gender Adviser in Juba, South Sudan, where, working with the UN Population Fund (UNFPA), she has helped establish the Stand Up for Rights of Women and Girls initiative that has helped to reduce and prevent sexual and gender-based crime in South Sudan.
As part of this project, Chief Inspector Malambo created a network of groups led by male local police officers to engage other men in the community to disseminate information and promote the protection and advancement of the rights of women and girls.
Chief Inspector Malambo also contributed to UNMISS’ efforts to disseminate information on COVID-19 prevention to vulnerable communities, including those with disabilities.
The United Nations Woman Police Officer of the Year award was established in 2011 to recognize the exceptional contributions of women police officers to UN peace operations and to promote the empowerment of women.
The award carries special significance this year when we mark the 20th anniversary of UN Security Council Resolution 1325 on women, peace and security and 60 years since the first deployment of UN police, to the UN Operation in the Congo.
