The Role of Women in Mediation and Conflict Resolution: Lessons for UN Security Council Resolution 1325

  • Roohia S. Klein

Summary

The aim of this paper is to draw upon academic studies of gender behavior in mediation and negotiation to better understand the implications of SCR1325, including recent examples of the role of women in international conflict resolution. The questions I hope to answer are: How does gender play a role in negotiation and mediation? How do these differences affect international conflict mediations? How have women differed in their approach to mediating international disputes? Finally, what do these lessons suggest in support, or in criticism, of SCR1325?
