This #IWD2023 we're highlighting some of the important Stimson work that examines international security issues through a gender lens. 🧵

It’s about damn time.

Just want to bring it to everyone’s attention that it would seem based on this U.S. CBO report, our politicians would rather take #veterans EARNED Veterans Benefits away than tax the rich. Think about that. cbo.gov/budget-options…

And then, there were 31. Welcome Finland!

Welcome to the NATO family, Finland 🇫🇮! Looking forward to working with you on promoting #WomenPeaceSecurity, #HumanSecurity and #YouthPeaceSecurity for a safer and stronger Alliance. #WeAreNATO #StrongerTogether

Welcome, #Finland - we are so glad to have you on our team!

For those of you who have not read the 12 page political document that: takes no responsibility for the withdrawal, provides no accountability, and doesn’t acknowledge that the entire veteran community out-coordinated the USG- this thread is worth a read, my fav tweet below:

Does anyone have any accurate, verifiable information about which Republicans & which Democrats are exploiting #veterans & VA benefit cuts as political pawns (((precisely at a time of increased GWOT veteran mental illness & suicidal/homicidal ideation)))? Where are the details

Bravo Finnish Defence Forces International Centre! The little I know about all of Human Security in all of its complexity- the more I am convinced we need a comprehensive approach to include all stakeholders in order to move these areas forward. Human Security as a design consideration is the future of warfare.

So many great ideas and research shared today at the #CriticalNATOStudies workshop here in Engage@NewcastleUni - looking forward to my paper presentation tomorrow and sharing with colleagues!

Excellent remarks on the future of #HumanSecurity by NATO WPS at the NATO STABILITY POLICING CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE Conference on SP Role in HS conference today. Very timely - especially as we discuss prevention and response to #CRSV on the Int’l Day for Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict. #EndRapeInWar

Very honored to be selected as Council on Foreign Relations Stephen M. Kellen term member. Looking forward to the world class programming as member of such a respected organization. Deeply grateful to my nominators for their support, mentorship and encouragement through this process!

Really enjoyed working with NATO STABILITY POLICING CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE this week to chat about NATO’s #HumanSecurity approach and how it fits into #StabilityPolicing and the future of conflict!

Join @DINSN next Monday evening for what should be a very interesting virtual conversation with the intrepid Michèle Flournoy. we have a great mix of policy and professional advice topics lined up—so there will be something for everyone. Register via email with [email protected]

As we consider Gaza and civilian casualties, and what is possible, many don’t know of recent advancements in the protection of civilians. In addition to compliance with IHL, something else emerged 15 years ago: civilian harm mitigation and response, or #CHMR.  What is CHMR?
