Complementary Activities
Throughout the year, ICIP organizes face-to-face and virtual reflection activities, such as social gatherings and analysis sessions, mainly aimed at a specialized audience. These activities allow for a deeper understanding of the issues raised.
Peace, security and feminisms: current challenges
As part of the Center Delàs d’Estudis per la Pau’s annual conference dedicated to feminist security, ICIP and the pacifist organization organized a meeting with Laura Sjoberg, a professor of politics and international relations at Royal Holloway (University of London), on October 24, 2023.
The meeting consisted of exchanging experiences and a workshop to analyze concrete proposals for action. Issues such as the progress made in introducing the feminist perspective on peace and security and how to deal with the pending challenges were discussed.
Participants also reflected on how the global policy of peace and security is intertwined with local dynamics and how to move towards discussing the intersectionality of oppressions.
