Gender inequality remains a reality in every country worldwide, and is particularly pronounced in conflict-affected contexts. How do inequalities and gender roles shape civilian experiences – namely, women’s experiences - of war? What are the responsibilities of those who hold power to shift the needle? Amid growing inequalities this topic may never have been so urgent.

Join us for a critical reflection with the new President of the ICRC on how international humanitarian law and humanitarian principles can be a vital link between women, peace and security and address the gendered impacts of war. This is an HRI-sponsored event. Lunch will be provided.
