About
Through our collaborative advocacy, campaigning and research, GAPS highlights the realities of women and girls living in conflict-affected countries to decision-makers and practitioners and to promote their participation at all levels. GAPS uses the combined strength and expertise of the members of the network to push for national and global action on women and girls’ rights in conflict to ensure their voices are heard, listened to, and acted upon. GAPS also works with partners from conflict-affected countries.
We are dedicated to promoting, facilitating and monitoring the inclusion of gender perspectives in all aspects of UK Government and global peace and security policy and practice, and work in close partnership with civil society, governments, academics, and multilateral institutions to achieve this. Additionally, by providing the secretariat for the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Women, Peace and Security, we ensure that progress on Women, Peace and Security benefits from the influence and scrutiny of UK Parliamentarians.Visit website »
