Description:
This training will provide participants with insights on gender equality in peacebuilding and how to apply a gender perspective in the context of conflicts. This training will examine the gender-specific dimensions of conflict and peacebuilding. It will ask: How do gender roles change during phases of violent conflict and war? And how does this affect peacebuilding processes? Participants will reflect critically on the notions of masculinity, violence and militarism in wartime as well as on the discourses on women as actors and victims of war.
The course is designed for practitioners and academics interested in bridging their own experiences with current conceptual insights and practical knowledge on gender and peacebuilding. This 2-day course (13-14 April) is part of the thematic module of the CAS Civilian Peacebuilding Essentials, a postgraduate programme offered annually by SwissPeace and the University of Basel.
