An Integrated Conflict Perspective and Dimensions of Poverty

Sammanfattning

Conflict and violence are main obstacles to development. Violent conflicts both create enormous human suffering, revert development gains and make it more difficult for women, men, girls and boys to escape poverty. While considerable progress in poverty reduction has been made, people living in poverty and extreme poverty are now increasingly concentrated to countries affected by fragility, conflict and violence. Sida’s framework for multi dimensional poverty integrates a conflict perspective both by recognizing lack of human security as one of four dimensions of poverty and the peace and security context as major cause of poverty. The purpose of this brief is to describe how human security and the peace and conflict context interplay with the other dimensions of poverty in Sida’s conceptual framework and how to integrate a conflict perspective into the multidimensional poverty analysis (MDPA).

Preventing and responding to gender-based violence: technical note

Tematik: Fredliga samhällen Global Hälsa Humanitärt bistånd Jämställdhet Metodstöd

Gender-based violence (GBV) is one of the most obvious expressions of unequal gender relations in a society. It is a grave violation of human rights with detrimental effects on individuals, families and societies. GBV is both an expression of unequal gender relations, and a means through which these are upheld, both a consequence and a cause of gender inequality. GBV has significant costs for individuals, their families and immediate surroundings, as well as for communities, businesses, the development of countries and their possibilities of reaching the Sustainable Development Goals.
This technical note gives an overview of what GBV is and how Sida works to prevent and respond to GBV. It includes relevant international commitments and policy frameworks, areas for dialogue with partners, stakeholders and other donors, as well as forms of GBV. GBV is an area of high priority for Swedish development cooperation. Work to prevent and respond to GBV is mainly done within the thematic areas of gender equality, sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), peace and conflict and humanitarian assistance. Therefore, this technical note aims to incorporate GBV from these four areas.

STABILISATION

Tematik: Fredliga samhällen Global Metodstöd

Stabilisation is sometimes understood as a broad term that encompasses support to durable peace and security. At other times stabilisation refers to a particular type of comprehensive external interventions, also called “stabilisation facilities” or “stabilisation missions”. This Technical Note explains both of these broad usages of the term. The objective is not primarily conceptual, but rather to provide some helpful advice in the form of key questions to consider in order to tackle the particular opportunities, challenges and risks raised in relation to stabilisation and stabilisation facilities through Sida’s existing tools and approaches.
