For NATO as an Alliance, UNSCR 1325, gender mainstreaming and the integration of the gender perspectives into all our efforts and tasks remains a top priority . There can be no lasting peace without inclusion and gender equality which relate back to the fundamental values on which the Alliance was built – democracy, individual liberty, human rights and the rule of law . This extensive review of national statistics and policies demonstrates the effects and added value of integrating the gender perspective in recruitment, retention, work-life balance and in military operations . However, the purpose of the Summary is not only to provide transparent reporting on the improvements made on the gender domain, but also to share best practices, experiences and comparison of different approaches . This work, therefore, becomes an exemplar for NATO member and partner nations determined to fulfil NATO’s and their commitments. I would like to thank all the contributing nations and subject matter experts who contributed to this body of work . Jan Broeks, NLD Lieutenant General Director General of NATO International Military Staff 2016 NATO Summary of the National Reports 5 6 2016 NATO Summary of the National Reports EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The 2016 Summary of the National Reports of NATO member and partner nations (hereafter referred as ‘Summary’) to the NATO Committee on Gender Perspectives (NCGP) is a comprehensive compendium of the statistics, policies and programmes related to the implementation of the United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1325 on Women, Peace and Security and related resolutions in the armed forces . The origins of this work date back to 1998, when the NCGP began to request annual National Reports from all NATO member nations. In 2015, the Office of the Gender Advisor of the International Military Staff at NATO HQ (IMS GENAD), as the secretariat to the NCGP, began to forward a standardised online questionnaire to all NATO member and partner nations . The result was a conclusive report with an analysis of the implementation and mainstreaming of gender perspectives in the armed forces . The 2016 Summary is the third edition of the report and shows significant progress and commitment of NATO member and partner nations . As the questionnaire has been standardized, the final report provides comparisons with last year’s data and shares a review of gender policies and programmes adopted by the Nations . The 2016 Summary collects data from all NATO member and 13 partner nations - Australia, Austria, Finland, Georgia, Ireland, Japan, Moldova, Montenegro, New Zealand, Serbia, Sweden, Switzerland and Ukraine . The first part of the 2016 Summary comprises the Executive Summary, which is organised in seven Chapters . These are: Representation of Men and Women in the Armed Forces, Applications and Successful Recruitment, Retention Statistics (including Reserves and Work- Life Balance), Services and Ranks, Integration of Gender Perspectives (including Gender in Operations), the 2015 and 2016 NCGP Recommendations to the Military Committee (MC) and Conclusion . The second part of the 2016 Summary introduces the profiles of all NATO member and partner nations separately and offers a detailed overview of national legislation, programmes and policies related to the advancement of the implementation of UNSCR 1325 and related resolutions in the armed forces. 28 NATO member nations are introduced first, followed by 13 NATO partner nations . Although Montenegro is since 2017 a member nation, for the purpose of this Summary reflecting year 2016, the Montenegrin national report is presented at the second part designated for the partner nations . The 2016 Summary also builds up on the work and analysis conducted in previous years . The Chapters on the Representation of Men and Women in the Armed Forces, Applications and Successful Recruitment, Retention Statistics, Services and Ranks and Integration of Gender Perspectives in the Armed Forces have been maintained as well as the deliberate use of the same graphs, with updated statistics, which allows comparison between years . However, several innovations were introduced; such as additional graph to further review the statistical data provided on the main areas of employment of men and women in the armed forces and column graphs on the distribution of men and women in the armed forces . Furthermore, new graphs have been added to the Chapter 4 – Ranks and Services to provide detailed overview of the distribution of ranks among men and women and in Chapter 6 - the 2015 and 2016 NCGP Recommendations to the MC is provided overview of actions taken by nations on the implementation of the 2015 and 2016 NCGP Recommendations to MC . Each graph is further described and provided with significant results of 5 member nations and 1 partner nation. All innovations serve to better present the data . Ultimately, apart from the statistical overview, the 2016 Summary should also serve as a practical guide to NATO nations on how to gender mainstream and how to integrate gender perspectives in their armed forces by best practices provided in tables with selections of national approaches . 2016 NATO Summary of the National Reports 7 All NATO member and partner nations are highly encouraged to continue to submit their reports in the years to come, so that the Summary can become a continuous record that is increasingly effective and useful for all . Whilst there is commonality in much of the data and its presentation, the written narratives can vary quite considerably . As such, the IMS GENAD has purposely chosen not to amend the content . Nations are encouraged to consider what works best for them in subsequent reports . All Nations are responsible for the information they submitted . 8 2016 NATO Summary of the National Reports Representation of Men and Women in the Armed Forces in 2016 1 This chapter presents an analysis of the representation of men and women in the armed forces, all active duty military personnel, based on statistical information provided by NATO member and partner nations. The first section provides averages based on the National Reports submitted by NATO member nations . The second section looks at the averages based on the reports from NATO member and partner nations combined . Representation of Men and Women in the Armed Forces of NATO Member Nations Figure 1 shows that the average percentage of women in the armed forces of NATO member nations was 10 .9% in 2016 . This includes all active duty military personnel . In 2015, the average percentage of women in the armed forces was 10 .8% and in 2014 it was 10 .3% . Figure 2 shows the average percentage of female military personnel over the course of the last 18 years . This average has increased by 3 .8% since 1999 when women represented 7 .1% of the armed forces of NATO member nations . Figure 1: Average of men and women Active Duty military personnel in the armed forces of NATO member states in 2016 10.9% 89.1% Women Men Figure 2: Percentage of women in the armed forces of NATO member states from 1999 to 2016 10.5% 10.5%.

  • Fragility, Aid, and State-Building
    Fragility, Aid, and State-building Fragile states pose major development and security challenges. Considerable international resources are therefore devoted to state-building and institutional strengthening in fragile states, with generally mixed results. This volume explores how unpacking the concept of fragility and studying its dimensions and forms can help to build policy-relevant under- standings of how states become more resilient and the role of aid therein. It highlights the particular challenges for donors in dealing with ‘chronically’ (as opposed to ‘temporarily’) fragile states and those with weak legitimacy, as well as how unpacking fragility can provide traction on how to take ‘local context’ into account. Three chapters present new analysis from innovative initiatives to study fragility and fragile state transitions in cross- national perspective. Four chapters offer new focused analysis of selected countries, drawing on comparative methods and spotlighting the role of aid versus historical, institu- tional and other factors. It has become a truism that one-size-fits-all policies do not work in development, whether in fragile or non-fragile states. This should not be confused with a broader rejection of ‘off-the-rack’ policy models that can then be further adjusted in particular situations. Systematic thinking about varieties of fragility helps us to develop this range, drawing lessons – appropriately – from past experience. This book was originally published as a special issue of Third World Quarterly, and is available online as an Open Access monograph. Rachel M. Gisselquist is a political scientist and currently a Research Fellow with UNU-WIDER. She works on the politics of the developing world, with particular attention to ethnic politics and group-based inequality, state fragility, governance and democratiza- tion in sub-Saharan Africa.

The thesis aim is to understand and investigate how the DRC's educational sector has managed to be resilient over time (especially with regard to its funding), taking into account the interaction of different actors involved. Through the application of Tobias Hagmann and Didier Péclard's negotiated statehood approach to the Congolese educational sector and to a specific school in Goma, Bemba Gombo / Saint Franҫois Xavier Insitute, it is possible to understand who are the principal actors in the educational field, and which actors are excluded from the negotiating tables of the Congolese educational sector.

    Land access in rural Africa: Strategies to fight gender inequality FAO-Dimitra workshop – September 2008 Land access in rural Africa: Strategies to fight gender inequality FAO-Dimitra workshop: Information and communication strategies to fight gender inequality as regards land access and its consequences for rural populations in Africa 22-26 September 2008 – Brussels, Belgium For Marie Mwira © Dimitra Dear Marie, This publication is dedicated to you, the brave and tireless activist for women’s rights and peace in the Great Lakes Region. You impressed us with your courage and strength in such a difficult environment. The last time we met you, in February 2008, you told us how many of Africa’s problems were connected to customary discrimination against women and to land control issues. Your strategies for dealing with these problems – information campaigns to repackage and disseminate texts and conventions on human rights, education, exchanging experiences, advocacy, and so on – would have fit in perfectly with this document. We will never forget you. The Dimitra team and its partners Marie Mwira was President of the Réseau Femme et Développement (REFED – Women and Development Network) in North Kivu as well as President of the organisation Genre et Tradition pour le Développement et la Paix au Nord-Kivu (Gender and Tradition for Development and Peace in North Kivu). She died of a heart attack in Goma on 2 December 2008. © Dimitra Thérèse, a widow, lives in a camp for displaced people near her native “ hill (colline). Her brothers have refused to give her access to the family land, saying that you cannot mix clans and upset the patriarchal system.

Email: [email protected] © Institute of Race Relations 2006 Preface In this issue of the Bulletin, we document around eighty of the most serious incidents of racial violence that have taken place across Europe over the last eleven months. These attacks occurred as the war on terror heightened prejudices against Muslims and foreigners. As Islam has been essentialised (by commentators, politicians and the media) as inherently violent and migration has been depicted as a threat to national security, 'Muslim' has become synonymous with ‘terrorist’, and migrant and foreigner with ‘crime’.

  • Report for the Voluntary National Review
    Report for the Voluntary National Review Denmark’s implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Ministry of Finance JUNE 2017 Report for the Voluntary National Review Denmark’s implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Ministry of Finance JUNE 2017 Preface The 2030 Agenda and 17 SDGs together constitute a vision for our world and planet and a call to action. Delivering on this promise will require an enormous effort, and rightfully so. Lack of ambition is not an option when it comes to our people’s and planet’s collective well- being. Denmark is uniquely positioned to achieve and promote the 2030 Agenda and the 17 SDGs. As Minister of Finance, I am proud to say that we have a strong economy and low unem- ployment combined with green energy, healthcare and education for all, gender equality, freedom of speech and a social safety net that supports those furthest behind. Since 1980, Denmark has achieved economic growth without any significant increases in total energy consumption, and even decreased emissions. Denmark also takes responsibility internationally. We are among the six countries in the world that meet the common UN goal of providing 0.7 percent of GNI in ODA. We have done so since 1978 and will continue to do so. Having a head start does not imply that Denmark will sit back and relax. I was at the United Nations in 2015 when the 2030 Agenda was adopted, and as a politician I consider it an essential part of my responsibility that we take into account all three dimensions of sustaina- ble development when we propose new initiatives: economic, environmental and social.
