Published purpose

Sustainable feminist peace requires a challenge to the gendered root causes of violence. This project works locally, nationally and globally by building alliances between women peace activists and men allies and creating critical space for solidarity dialogues. It also supports evidence-based research that aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of gendered power relations and how these relations influence, and are influenced by violence, armed conflict, and war. Finally, the outcomes from the research and dialogues work to inform advocacy in human rights bodies, the disarmament fora, and Women Peace and Security debates to strengthen international gender conflict analysis and the Women Peace and Security Agenda.
