Funded Activity Summary

Women, Peace and Security: Rethinking Policy, Advocacy and Implementation. The United Nations Security Council addresses gender-related peace and security issues through the framework of the ‘women, peace and security’ (WPS) agenda. This project aims to show how the WPS agenda is translated from international through national to local contexts, by applying discourse-theoretical analysis to the formation of the WPS policy architecture, mapping feminist advocacy around the WPS agenda, and analysing the implementation of the WPS agenda at the national level. The project aims to examine formation, advocacy and implementation from a discourse-theoretical perspective and thus offer new insights into the challenges and opportunities afforded by the WPS agenda for the lives of women in conflict-affected states. This may provide new insights to all participant organisations and therefore have an impact on policy-making and advocacy in this sphere.
