Even the most socially inclusive peace agreement will be followed by a series of predictable processes which tend to undermine both the women, peace, and security (WPS) agenda and many other progressive aspects of the peace agreement. Thus, for the WPS agenda to be a truly transformative tool in building sustainable peace, it requires forward-looking expert knowledge of postwar political-economic processes and dynamics; analysis of their impact on gender relations and other structural inequalities; and recommendations for how to engage and modify those processes to be more supportive of the societal transformations critical to building sustainable peace. Led by Dr. Carol Cohn at the Consortium on Gender, Security, and Human Rights (fiscal sponsor: University of Massachusetts Foundation), the Feminist Roadmap for Sustainable Peace uses an innovative international knowledge-building process to generate those new ideas and strategies that will have real policy impact, while at the same time broadening and deepening the academic agenda on WPS.
