Gender, Environment, and Development Research Initiative for Security and Empowerment
GENDERISE emerges as a transformative initiative poised to bridge critical gaps in research and policy engagement on the intersection of gender, environmental sustainability, economic development, and national security. GENDERISE recognizes that gender inequality not only exacerbates economic stress, environmental degradation, climate change, and violent conflicts but also hinders effective responses to these crises. By integrating a gender-focused lens into the analysis of these global challenges, GENDERISE aims to uncover novel insights and forge pathways towards more inclusive and sustainable solutions.
Mission Statement
GENDERISE is dedicated to research and policy advocacy on the intertwined impacts of economic stress, environmental degradation, climate change, and violent conflicts on women's economic progress and national security. Through rigorous research, policy engagement, and collaborative knowledge-sharing, we aim to illuminate the dual causal linkages: how these global challenges affect women and how economically empowering women can mitigate these issues.
