Occasional Paper Series: Gender and Peace building in Africa
This occasional paper series was initially framed by an interest in interrogating gender training as a tool for transformation within peacekeeping and peace support operations. The focus of this series subsequently expanded to include a critical analysis of the dominant paths through which gender has been integrated into discourses on security.
As a result, training, the integration of women into the military, the role of autonomous women’s movements in post-conflict reconstruction and an interrogation of masculinities have become the range of approaches that are discussed by the authors in this series. Download [PDF]
