Gender, Conflict & Peacebuilding (online)

This online course will delve into the intersectional relationship between gender, conflict, security, and peacebuilding, catering to policymakers, peacebuilding practitioners, and international development professionals. Participants will explore the influence of gender stereotypes on perceptions of war and peace and examine how gender intersects with identities such as race, class, social class, ability, and nationality to analyze inequalities in conflict and peace contexts. Additionally, they will critically assess the strengths and limitations of the UN Security Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace, and Security.

The course will offer gender perspectives on mediation, conflict sensitivity, and the culture of peace, both in physical and digital spaces and within international organizations.

Think critically about gender and its relevance to the development of lasting and sustainable peace.
