Violence against women and girls remains the most pervasive human rights violation in the world, affecting more than 1 in 3 women—a figure that has remained largely unchanged over the last decade.

Global emergencies, crises and conflict have further intensified violence against women and girls and exacerbated the drivers and risk factors. Climate change is aggravating all types of gender-based violence against women and girls, an already visible pattern that will undoubtedly grow more extreme as the crisis worsens. Rapidly expanding digitalization is increasing online violence against women and girls, compounding existing forms of violence and leading to the emergence of new ones. At the same time, there has been a rise in anti-rights movements and anti-feminist groups, driving an expansion of regressive laws and policies, a backlash against women’s rights organizations and a spike in attacks against women human rights defenders and activists.

TRANSFORMING CONSTITUTION-BUILDING

In a global context of democratic backsliding and growing intrastate and interstate conflicts, the imperative of women’s full and equal participation in constitution-building and peace processes is more urgent than ever. Yet in practice, women’s representation at the constitution-making table hovers around 19 per cent, while women’s representation at the peace negotiations table is even lower. Further, women’s participation in such processes is sometimes confined to stereotyped “women’s issues”, which deprives these processes of the richness of women’s intersectional identities and expertise.

In response to this challenge, the annual Women Constitution-Makers’ Dialogue series—founded in 2019 by International IDEA together with the Edinburgh Centre for Constitutional Law collaborating as part of the Peace and Conflict Resolution Evidence Platform (PeaceRep), University of Edinburgh[i]—provides a systematic, women-centered approach to examine and support inclusive, participatory and gender-sensitive constitution-building in conflict-affected and political transitions.
