Feminist Peace Theory

Feminist Peace Theory examines how gender inequalities and stereotypes influence conflict and peacebuilding. It argues that systemic oppression of women and marginalized groups contributes to violence and instability worldwide. By promoting gender equality, empowering women, and challenging traditional power dynamics, the theory suggests that societies can achieve more sustainable and just peace. It emphasizes that peace is not just about ending war but also addressing social injustices that fuel conflict, recognizing that inclusive, gender-sensitive approaches lead to more lasting and equitable peace.
