  Please join the new Center for the Study of Gender and Conflict and the Genocide Prevention Program at S-CAR for a moderated conversation surrounding the intersection of gender and genocide.

This conversation plans to go beyond discussions of sexual violence, exploring gender as a central element which foments and justifies genocide. Furthermore, gender neutral frameworks fail to identify distinguishing types of violence characteristic of early stages of genocide. Conceptualizing gender as a central defining component of genocide offers told useful for developing an early warning system.
