“…Article 155 declares the constitutionality of the Public Security Ordinance (PSO), which was first instituted by the British in 1947 and later amended by Mrs. Bandaranaike's government to limit parliamentary review of executive acts, prohibit judicial review, and suspend fundamental rights. 209 Article 155 also stipulates the procedures to be followed during an emergency. It provides that a state of emergency exists with a Presidential declaration, which then triggers the operation of the PSO.…”

“…While men and women both play informal roles in peace processes and peacebuilding, gendered norms, stereotypes and power structures have contributed to sidelining women from actively partici pating in formal capacities. 20 The absence of women in formal roles in peace processes is a definitive challenge for sustainable peace. Women's mean ingful participation in peace processes has been noted to contribute to longer and more successful peace agreements.…”

Gender Dimensions of Climate Insecurity

Gender is a traditionally under researched dimension in scholarship on climate and security. However, as recent research has noted, it is a variable that cannot only shape how different groups of individuals are affected by climate-related security risks. Gendered norms and power structures can also increase or mitigate the likelihood of climate-related security risks. This SIPRI Insights paper contributes to the growing body of research on gender, climate and security by analyzing the gender dimensions of the four pathways of climate insecurity featured in past SIPRI studies: (a) livelihood deterioration; (b) migration and changing mobility; (c) tactical considerations of armed groups; and (d) elite exploitation and resource mismanagement. It reviews literature to highlight how gender can influence resilience and risk for different groups of men and women within the pathways. Where relevant, it also discusses how gender may serve as an instigating factor for the respective pathways. The paper stresses the need to critically understand the different and interlinked experiences of groups of men and women in the pathway contexts, and to ensure equal leadership and participation of all affected groups in addressing climate-related security risks.

“…121 Gender shapes power relations between and within different groups, with gendered norms and inequalities influencing resource access, mobility and formal roles in public spaces. Gender can influence who is affected by violence and in what ways, 122 and can intersect with other identity markers-including ethnicity, age, disability, sexual orientation and class-to compound or heighten risks related to climate change and insecurity. 123 Equal and meaningful participation by all affected demographics is important when it comes to addressing security risks related to climate change and environmental degradation.…”

This research report is a product of the Environment of Peace initiative launched by SIPRI in May 2020. It sets out the evidence base that provided the foundation for Environment of Peace: Security in a New Era of Risk, a policy report published in May 2022. The report is published in four parts-Elements of a Planetary Emergency (part 1); Security Risks of Environmental Crises (part 2); Navigating a Just and Peaceful Transition (part 3); and Enabling an Environment of Peace (part 4)-as outlined below. Elements of a Planetary EmergencyPart 1 lays out the conceptual and evidential landscape for Environment of Peace, bringing together data on a wide range of indicators, showing that both security and environmental stresses are increasing. Security Risks of Environmental CrisesThis part, part 2, shows how combinations of environmental and security phenomena are generating complex risks. Through a theoretical framework informed by the literature, Cedric de Coning, Research Professor at the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs (NUPI), and his team explore different pathways from environmental stress to conflict and how the darkening security horizon and environmental crises are interacting to generate different types of risk: compound, cascading, emergent, systemic and existential. The analysis is supported by numerous case studies, spanning a variety of social-ecological systems and different types of risks. This part of the report also discusses options for responding to these complex risks. Navigating a Just and Peaceful TransitionPart 3 focuses on needed transitions towards sustainability and climate resilience, with special attention given to areas such as land use, energy and climate response. Enabling an Environment of PeacePart 4 examines the legal and institutional landscape within which the twin crises-and humanity's responses to them-play out. Other related materialsSeparate annexes assemble a number of in-depth case studies and other input papers that were commissioned to inform the research and analysis of the report.
