Recorded in November 2024.

Join us for an exclusive deep dive into the critical intersection of Women, Peace and Security and Counterterrorism with two experts: Vanessa DuBoulay and Robert F. Clifford. 

With them we’ll explore how incorporating a gender perspective is reshaping U.S. counterterrorism strategies, from enhancing threat identification to understanding how gender-based violence (GBV) is used by terrorist groups as a tool of control. We’ll also look at how women’s participation in law enforcement can drive better CT outcomes, and dive into real-world success stories.

This is an episode you won’t want to miss if you're passionate about national security and global peace efforts.
