In this episode, Sofiia talks to Gabriel Nuckhir, a Gender and Peacebuilding Adviser at Conciliation Resources. In 2023, Gabriel, as part of the Conciliation Resources project, collaborated with partners from Pakistan, Uganda and the Philippines to unearth much needed insights into how gender dynamics, climate change and conflict are interacting in contexts experiencing worsening climate change and conflict impacts. Gabriel shares about his professional journey through peacebuilding so far, and how this led him to the recognition that it is critical to take a joined-up approach to the meta-challenges concerning gender equality, climate change and violent conflict. This episode surfaces and explores the concepts masculinities, social norms and expectations, cultural identity and links these with climate change and ultimately conflict - listen to learn more.
