EU Feminist Foreign Policy on Syria: How a holistic perspective can inform EU policymaking on Syria
After ten years of war in Syria, a political solution to the conflict, responding to needs and rights of all Syrians, seems out of reach. The conflict has disproportionally affected women and marginalized groups, while their role in conflict resolution has been sidelined. The EU’s current approach does not offer ways out of the political impasse. The study applies feminist foreign policy as an analytical framework which takes the realities of peace and conflict into account, and places gender equality, women’s and human rights at the heart.
