About the course
This course focuses on the intersection between gender and peace and conflict research. It aims to develop students' abilities to understand the complex role that gender plays in patterns of war and peace. Gender is defined as "the characteristics of women, men, girls and boys that are socially constructed. This includes norms, behaviours and roles associated with being a woman, man, girl or boy, as well as relationships with each other"[1]. The emphasis is placed on understanding gender's explanatory value in relation to participation in war; the differential patterns of suffering and violence; and the consequences for men and women in conflict resolution, peacekeeping, transitional justice and peacebuilding processes.
