Projects

Connecting networks of women in foreign, European and security policy, across the V4 states

Although women constitute half of the population, their participation in the formulation and execution of foreign, European and security policy within the V4 countries is disproportionately low compared to men. This underrepresentation is not only unfair, but it also contributes to policies and policy solutions that lack key perspectives, thus potentially lacking efficiency. Despite formal attempts at achieving gender equality, several persistent issues contribute to this imbalance.
