Engendering Security  

The Engendering Security Program seeks to contribute to a corpus of knowledge, empirical and theoretical, on the ways in which gender and non-traditional formulations of security intersect in South Asia. It draws on a diverse community of animators from academia, foreign policy, the media and NGOs to expand the contours of the security debate, by moving it beyond a military or state-centric preoccupation.

Seeking to place gender concerns squarely within the parameters of the evolving discourse on security, WISCOMP conducts and facilitates research on a range of themes including Gender, Identity and Armed Conflict; Gender and the Politics of Water Security; Gender and the Dynamics of Displacement; Gender and Terrorism; Gender and Peacebuilding; and Gender and Peacekeeping. Scholars from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bhutan and India come together to engage with these themes, and to intensively research an area of conflict within the country of their residence.
