Zooming out on gender, sexual violence and security -  my own reflections


14 January, 2016.  I have spent quite some time during the last year to develop my thinking on gender and security not least with reference to the EU.

​ This work has gone on hand-in-hand with my work on human security.

Looking back at my book on EU and security which I finished drafting about a year ago I've learned a lot. The risk is when discussing gender that you stop by discussing the representation of women in different types of structures including CSDP  missions.

​
 But of course gender security so much more and issue needs to be mainstreamed into most if not all of the pages on this website.

 Increasingly during the year the focus in the public debate has been on sexual violence not only in war but also linked to migration and refugees.

The notion of  in human trafficking has become very much more complicated
 as the problem of migrant smuggling has escalated.

 I am not the only one having to learn lessons on  these topics. The EU strategic review published in the summer of 2015  was weak on gender and  wider human security issues. The same now risks being the case for the EU global strategy.   One on my last tweets on this topic was  not surprisingly retweeted by the EU EEAS gender adviser.

Some of the topics covered in these videos:

But it is just the beginning of a much more and necessary comprehensive analysis as illustrated by this graph  showing the need to further mainstream gender into all the pages of this website.


Gender equality can thus not be measured in one way alone: 
It is a multidimensional concept with fundamental importance for human security and positive peace
