After producing +180 episodes and interviews for the podcast- on a wide range of topics from Feminist Theory in IR, FFPs, Conflict, Peace, Race, Gender, Climate Change and more-, for our 5th anniversary we launched a podcast data report on the trends and insights we have covered in the 3 levels of IR analysis. From the Absence of Women to the Missing Men: Whose identities, norms and concepts are leading States' behavior and why? How the study and praxis of International Relations is shaped by unequal gender and power dynamics? These and many more questions can be found in this data report. We want to thank Cecilia, Maria, Chelo, Fabiana, Maren, Joselyn and Alexis for registering your interest in the launch of the data report and thank you to all the podcast listeners who have followed the different explorations in the span of five years and still continue learning and unlearning.

"The main goal of the Second IPB World Congress is to provide a space for gathering and sharing experiences for all involved in international peace and justice movements. A place where we can foster synergies between organizations and individuals, and between interconnected social movements fighting for global justice: peace and disarmament advocates, feminist and LGBTQIA+ campaigners , ecologists and climate activists , antiracists and indigenous people, human rights defenders and trade unionists. We want to promote the inclusion of a peace perspective within these movements, in order to better confront the global challenges of our time: climate change and environmental collapse, gender, racial and economic inequality, the Covid-19 pandemic, mass migrations, refugee crisis, humanitarian emergencies caused by war and repression, and more. This Congress is an opportunity for diverse people, groups and causes to share strategies and to articulate alternatives together. A space to create and renovate tools and discourse, to mobilize citizens from all across the globe in favor of peace and disarmament. A place where we can (re) imagine our world, and take action for peace and justice. We invite you to join us at the Second World Peace Congress in Barcelona, organized by the International Peace Bureau". | |||

With the latest conflict escalations between Israel and Palestine; Colombia; Tigray region, how are we consuming and reacting to the international news cycle? What is war journalism and how it affects our emotional and ideological connection to some conflicts/people/religions and not so much others? In this new exploration we engage in a full conversation on the Post-Truth Era: Why is there so much pressure to use specific words to name the crimes that are not being recognized by "Others" worldwide? How constructive, restrictive, hostile or able our family/education/work/national environments are that we take it "against" people on what we think they should do or should have done? Are we really free if our speech is conditioned by political "correctness"? Are we mirrors (projecting, externalizing) or jurors of that which we easily can condemn? Are we showing international solidarity by recognizing/naming the reality interpreted by/for/against one/some/all sides? 💜Join us in this exploration, subscribe to our newsletter here and support our community in Patreon here.

How the political climate of countries can hinder or facilitate conflict resolution or peace efforts? When did the concept of "peace" become a political tool for winning or losing a presidential elections in Colombia? Can the new 'Total Peace' plan pave the way for transitional or transformational justice? How have Conflict-Related Sexual Violence cases within rebel groups such as the FARC been addressed in transitional justice mechanisms? Who are the 'ideal victims' for the State or the special judicial systems? How can reparations for sexual violence victims include a gender perspective? An interview with Daniela Suárez Vargas is a PhD student in Law at Queen’s University Belfast (UK), a scholar of the AHRC Northern Bridge Consortium’s doctoral training programme (UK), and a qualified lawyer in Colombia. Her PhD project analyses how legal narratives of the "ideal victim" of sexual violence impact the recognition of victim status for women fighters who experienced such violence within their own armed group.
