About the program
The Responsibility to Protect programme constitutes NUPI’s contribution as an associated centre to the Global Centre for the Responsibility to Protect (GCR2P). Its role is to contribute to the effective operational implementation of the responsibility to protect norm by conducting solid, policy-oriented research on relevant topics, ensuring liaison regarding pertinent research with other organizations in the GCR2P network, and disseminating research findings through a host of convening and outreach activities.

(2012). The Responsibility to Protect: Integrating Gender Perspectives into Policies and Practices,
i Global Responsibility to Protect, Volume 4, Issue 2
.Brill.s. 172-179.Gender remains a neglected topic in the central documents and debates related to the Responsibility to Protect (R2P). There is thus a need to consider how gender may be integrated into R2P policies and practices. This article suggests that this discussion may be structured around two gender perspectives, which are guided by the questions of ‘where are the women?’ and ‘how does gender work?’ respectively.
