Masculinities and the Women, Peace and Security Agenda, Professor Brandon Hamber

Transitional Justice Institute: Public Lectures and Events

The WPS agenda, as defined by the UN Security Council, has latterly addressed itself more directly to the question of 'engaging men and boys'. This seminar will reflect on this development and its significance.

Professor Brandon Hamber is one of the world’s leading scholars on peace and conflict. He is the John Hume and Thomas P. O’Neill Chair in Peace at Ulster University based at the International Conflict Research Institute (INCORE) and also within the Transitional Justice Institute (TJI). His scholarship on gender, conflict and transitional justice has been to the forefront of efforts to integrate masculinities analysis into WPS and related themes.

This event is part of the WPS@20 seminar hosted by the Ulster University Transitional Justice Institute to mark the upcoming 20th anniversary of the adoption of Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and Security by the United Nations Security Council. Learn more at www.ulster.ac.uk/wps20.
