Redefining Peace: Interlinkages Of Conflict, Gender, And SRHR

Countries:

Asia

This thematic paper unpacks and examines the gendered impact of conflict on women and girls in Asia and on their sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) through a feminist lens. In situations of conflict women and girls’ experiences are often undocumented and they are made invisible at negotiation tables, resulting in a gender-blind approach to peace that is unsustainable and one that perpetuates the cycle of violence and conflict. Gender-blind approaches also ignore women and girls’ SRHR during conflict and humanitarian crises.
