The Missing half: Women Peace & Gender security

The Missing Half: Women, Peace and Gender Security Women are often among the first to experience the consequences of conflict—but their voices, experiences, and leadership remain underrepresented in many peace and security processes. In this episode, we explore “The Missing Half: Women, Peace and Gender Security” and examine the relationship between women, conflict, peacebuilding, and contemporary security. The discussion looks at why women’s participation matters in peace negotiations, conflict prevention, post-conflict reconstruction, national security, and community resilience. It also explores how traditional approaches to security have evolved from a state-centric focus toward broader concepts of human security and gender security. Key Areas of Discussion: Women’s role in conflict prevention and peacebuilding Women, Peace and Security (WPS) and UN Security Council Resolution 1325 Gender perspectives in national and international security The impact of armed conflict on women and communities Women’s participation in peace negotiations and decision-making Gender-based violence during conflict Women’s contribution to post-conflict reconstruction Human security and the changing meaning of security Challenges faced by women in security institutions The importance of inclusive approaches to sustainable peace The episode also asks an important question: Can sustainable peace and comprehensive security be achieved when half of society remains underrepresented in decision-making?
