Content_paragraphs:  Within the force, 4.8 per cent of the units are made up by women (672 out of
  
  14,017) and 17.5 per cent of staff officers from 14 contributing countries are women
  
  (67 out of 383). While the overall number of women deployed within the force has
  
  not significantly increased in recent years, female engagement teams have been
  
  deployed by contributing countries including Bangladesh and Ghana. Mongolia has
  
  reached parity within its engagement teams, with 40 to 50 per cent women. Various
  
  interlocutors confirmed that those teams enabled increased interaction with women
  
  and girls in communities. The Mission is unlikely to achieve gender parity within the
  
  force unless radical action is taken outside the Mission, including by Member States,
  
  which can support the development of national action plans to address this
  
  shortcoming in their militaries.
