- Description
- '78 states worldwide continue to criminalise same-sex sexual behaviour, and due to the legal legacies of the British Empire, 42 of these – more than half – are in the Commonwealth of Nations. Lately many states have seen the emergence of new sexual nationalisms, leading to increased enforcement of colonial sodomy laws against men, new criminalisations of sex between women and discrimination against transgender people. This publication challenges these developments as the first publication to focus on experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) and all non-heterosexual people in the Commonwealth and offers the most internationally extensive analysis to date of the global struggle for decriminalisation of same-sex sexual behaviour and relationships.'

- Description
- 'There are three basic concepts underlying the Global Gender Gap Index. First, it focuses on measuring gaps rather than levels. Second, it captures gaps in outcome variables rather than gaps in means or input variables. Third, it ranks countries according to gender equality rather than women’s empowerment.The Index is designed to measure gender-based gaps in access to resources and opportunities in individual countries rather than the actual levels of the available resources and opportunities in those countries.'

- Description
- 'This study explores the current state of affairs within the European External Action Service (EEAS) regarding geographical and gender balance. The study briefly outlines the political and legal background to both issues. The issues, however, pose distinct but related questions. Both demand long-term strategies, especially in the light of the shorter term legacy problems inherited by the EEAS from its constituent components. The issues are distinct in the sense that geographical balance lacks any obvious benchmark and thus notion of what ‘balance’ should be struck, beyond representation of all EU members at the most senior levels of the Service. Gender balance, by way of contrast, has more obvious societal and institutional based measures of balance. Progress in both regards has been made which, although symbolic, is important for inculcating a sense of wider ownership in the Service. .The study concludes with a number of specific recommendations regarding possible ways of improving both geographical and gender balance within the still young EEAS.'
