Erfarenhetsseminarium: GFSP- och EU-insatser

I oktober 2012 anordnade FBA och Myndigheten för samhällsskydd och beredskap (MSB) ett gemensamt erfarenhetsseminarium för personal som tjänstgjort inom EU:s civila krishanteringsinsatser under åren 2009-2012.

Syftet var att lära av och tillvarata insatspersonalens erfarenheter och föra in dessa i myndigheternas löpande arbete.

Fokus låg på tre i förväg utvalda områden: 1) genus och säkerhet – 1325; 2) utbildning; 3) kontingenten och kontingentledarrollen. Inför seminariet sändes en elektronisk enkät på dessa teman ut till all insatspersonal som varit sekunderade inom insatserna. Enkätresultaten utgjorde grunden för de tematiska diskussionerna under seminariet.

I rapporten från seminariet lämnas rekommendationer till myndigheterna och reflektioner och lärdomar av generell karaktär till andra parter som Regeringskansliet eller EU.

Amidst the perils of explosive devices, hostilities, and distressing civilian accounts, frontline monitors play a pivotal role in documenting human rights abuses within conflict zones. However, these monitors themselves confront significant stress and danger, requiring adept navigation of challenging circumstances to safeguard their own well-being as well as the safety of the vulnerable populations they serve. How can they adequately prepare?

This paper discusses the interlinkages between Security Sector Reform (SSR), elections, and gender equality. It uses FBA’s work in Somalia to show how gender-sensitive election security can serve as an entry point for working with inclusive SSR in an environment characterized by instability, conflict, and political unrest.

A safe online space to share experiences to support leadership in the UN

>

When I joined the Leadership and Cooperation Unit at the Folke Bernadotte Academy in August 2018, after working many years mainly in the private sector, I had a feeling that this job really would offer me an opportunity to use my skills and experiences to make a difference, and at the same time grow as a professional.

Civil Society as a Critical Partner: Rule of Law and Accountability in the Liberian COVID-19 Response, Part II

>

Part One of this post highlighted the importance of the rule of law in supporting crisis response in countries struggling with the effects of conflict. One of the most important rule of law principles in such settings is accountability, particularly “downward accountability”, in which state authorities focus on serving citizens dependent on them.

Corruption and poor governance can lead to excessive upward accountability directed toward political superiors, leaving a gap between the state and ordinary citizens. Civil ... Read entire post »

>

Right before the winter break, 236 women and men from 105 different organizations and 46 countries around the world joined our International Dialogue on Gender-Responsive Leadership, to discuss an absolutely critical and often missing part of the gender equality puzzle: gender-responsive leadership.

After twenty years of struggling to achieve the commitments of the global women, peace and security agenda, we at the FBA have learned that executives and managers are essential to success. Not just as supporters, ... Read entire post »
