Thematic Review on Gender-Responsive ÍæÅ¼½ã½ãbuilding 2021

The 2021 Thematic Review on Gender-Responsive ÍæÅ¼½ã½ãbuilding, commissioned by the UN ÍæÅ¼½ã½ãbuilding Support Office (PBSO) in partnership with German Federal Foreign Office and UN Women, maps good practices, gaps, challenges, emerging trends and priorities for action in gender-responsive peacebuilding. The Review draws on field-level consultations with women¡¯s organizations in Guatemala, Mali, Niger, Somalia, South Sudan, and Sri Lanka; key informant interviews with policymakers, academics, and UN staff carried out between April and June 2021; and a review of academic, practitioner and policy literature, as well as UN ÍæÅ¼½ã½ãbuilding Fund (PBF) project documents, evaluation reports and guidance notes. The Thematic Review provides practical recommendations for policymakers, donors, the PBF and its fund recipients on:
