- Description
- Collection of articles from young feminists on gendered violence in conflict-affected regions. DAWN (Development Alternatives with Women for a New Era) initiated the research project “Political Economy of Conflict and Violence against Women” in order to improve advocacy and scholarship on gender-based violence in political economies of conflict. Through case studies of both conflict and post-conflict zones in Mozambique, Palestine, South Africa, and Liberia, the book provides perspectives on how violence against women is embedded in local political economies of war, conflict and transition. The case studies build on DAWN’s book The Political Economy of Conflict and Violence against Women: Cases from the South (2019), addressing violence against women in conflict zones across the global South.

- Description
- In 2013, India’s parliament enacted the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, known as the POSH Act, to ensure a safe work environment for women. While women in India are increasingly speaking out against sexual abuse at work, in part due to the global #MeToo movement in 2017, many, particularly in the informal sector, are still constrained by stigma, fear of retribution, and institutional barriers to justice. .This report examines the enforcement of the POSH Act and gaps in mechanisms, particularly in the informal sector which employs 95 percent of all women workers. It is based on field research, secondary literature and 85 interviews with women in India working in both the formal and informal sectors, trade union officials, labor and women rights activists, lawyers, and academics. .Human Rights Watch found limited government efforts to enforce the law to protect women in the informal or unorganized sector, these include domestic workers and those employed by the government to implement various welfare programs.
