Women's participation in decision-making

Description
This episode discusses women’s participation in decision making across peacebuilding, politics and more. The adoption of resolution 1325 has meant that the importance of women’s participation is recognised but in practice women are still not being meaningful included. Genuine participation must include women from all parts of society. Host, Florence Waller – Carr (GAPS Policy and Advocacy Manager) is joined by Nathali Rátiva, a PhD candidate in interdisciplinary gender and equalities studies at the University of Salamanca and a Gender Officer at NIMD-Colombia, and Eva Tabbasam who is the Director at GAPS UK, a network of development, human rights, humanitarian and peacebuilding INGOs.
