Strategic Talks: Mobilizing women, peace and security in Ukraine - gender perspectives on NATO and beyond

Some of the issues that will be discussed are:

• Why are gender-sensitive responses, grounded in the UN’s women, peace and security agenda, needed in response to the war in Ukraine?
• What would such responses look like – now and then – and why are they lacking?
• How can the international community and NATO specifically, strengthen their involvement in promoting women, peace and security in Ukraine and beyond?
• What lessons, agendas and policies can we draw upon in order to strengthen social resilience and prevent inequality in crises (e.g. Covid pandemic) and conflicts (Russian invasion of Ukraine)?
