Preventing Conflict Transforming Justice Securing The Peace

Radhika Coomaraswamy, October 2015

Summary

“Equality between women and men is inextricably linked to peace and security.” “What’s happened in peace and security is that we’ve completely neglected half of the population, and so, we then become surprised that peace isn’t sustainable. And the only way to make something sustainable is to make it indigenous, to make it a cultural change.”
