The rapidly changing global security environment presents a challenge when it comes to gender equality. This analysis presents a bird’s eye view of global trends related to WPS, drawing on surveys with Helpdesk consortium partners, as well as their networks of in-country partner organisations alongside a literature review and trends mapping. The analysis identifies three key trends in the WPS landscape – militarisation, hybrid and emerging threats, and pushbacks on norms and closing civic space, and explore the implications of these trends for WPS.
