About the event
Women's representation and leadership in international security institutions refers to the participation and leadership of women in organizations and structures that are involved in the maintenance and promotion of international security. Historically, these institutions have been male-dominated, but there has been a growing recognition of the importance of gender diversity in these spaces. Women's representation in international security institutions can help ensure that the perspectives and experiences of women are taken into account in decision-making processes, and can lead to more effective and sustainable approaches to security issues. Additionally, women in leadership positions can serve as role models and mentors for other women, and can help to challenge and change institutional norms and practices that have traditionally excluded or marginalized women.
