Entretien avec Bineta Diop, envoyée spéciale pour la paix et la sécurité auprès de l’Union africaine

September 23, 2019

Les questions : 1/ Vingt ans après l’adoption, par le Conseil de sécurité de l’ONU, de la Résolution 1325, quel bilan faites-vous du Programme Femmes, paix et sécurité ? 2/ Ces dernières années, les armées ont commencé à prévoir une représentation féminine dans la composition de leurs contingents pour le maintien de la paix. Comment évaluez-vous l’arrivée des femmes dans les processus de paix et de sécurité et quel pourrait en être l’apport ? 3/ En ne favorisant pas l’accession des femmes à la magistrature suprême, les grandes démocraties ne donnent-elles pas le mauvais exemple en matière d’égalité des genres ?

A ceasefire has been in effect since April 8, and a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed by Iran and the United States on June 17. Nevertheless, as demonstrated by Iran's attacks on commercial vessels and recent U.S. strike ...

This development raises a fundamental question: why does a medieval fortified hilltop retain military value in the age of satellites, drones, and cruise missiles?This Policy Brief argues that Beaufort's significance is geographical before it is ideological or technological. Overlooking the Litani ...

    Fin mai 2026, des frappes israéliennes ont visé les abords du château de Beaufort (Qalaat al-Chaqif), près de Nabatiyeh, avant que l'armée israélienne n'en annonce la prise. Ce fait soulève une question centrale : pourquoi une hauteur fortifiée au Moyen Âge conserve-t-elle une valeur militaire à l'ère des satellites, des drones et des missiles de croisière ?Le présent Policy Brief tente de démontrer que la valeur de Beaufort est géographique avant d'être idéologique ou technologique ...

The paper examines the key cha ...
