"Women, Peace and Security: Views from the front (policy) lines"
Women, Peace and Security
Women are overwhelmingly excluded from formal efforts to prevent, resolve, and rebuild from conflict, even as they are targeted for particular forms of violence in these conflicts, and as they often organize at the local and international level to bring peace.
These podcasts address some of the international policy aspects of what is known as the "women, peace and security agenda."
Necessary and important disclaimer: the views expressed here are my own, and not necessarily those of the NGOWG on WPS.
The intro and exit music for the podcasts is by the amazing Jorge Sosa!
