This June, OSF celebrates Pride Month and the activism of community leaders who have improved our collective security through fighting for their human rights.
Naomi Mwaura entered her family business of operating matatus, a form of public transportation in Kenya, with a feminist perspective to promote the work of the women in the profession to begin making systemic changes to reduce gender-based violence.
The lessons from how a lack of women in the urban planning and infrastructure fields equally apply to the WPS agenda in international peace and security.
OSF facilitated connections between WPS actors and our Distinguished Partner awardees to discuss the importance of local ownership in the development space and create opportunities for greater support and collaboration.
Intersectionality is a tool that gives us better insight into how to tackle social inequality. What happens when it is not applied to peace and security?
