This brief discusses the integration of gender perspectives into conflict early warning systems. The authors find a lack of consensus on what is meant by gender sensitivity in the context of early warning and provide recommendations on how early warning systems can be made more gender-sensitive. They conclude that gender-sensitive early warning systems 1) could bring benefits in terms of women’s rights and gender equality in conflict-affected countries, and 2) could be more effective in anticipating and preventing armed conflict.
