ABSTRACT
The International community especially in the UN resolutions have repeatedly endorsed
the importance of engaging women in post-conflict peacebuilding in states recovering
from conflicts. While it is unarguable that post-conflict states cannot effectively attain
sustainable peace unless women are included and engaged in the process of peacebuilding;
yet, it remains surprising that the clarion call by the international community to engage
women in the processes of peacebuilding has not yielded the desired results in postconflict
states particularly in Africa where women are constantly ignored in formal peace
negotiation processes. Accordingly, the question this thesis intends to address is: To what
extent can a post-conflict state that ignores women in the process of sustainable peace be
able to guarantee the safety of its citizens? This thesis examines this question in the context
of the role of women in the peace negotiation processes in post-war Sierra Leone. It should
be noted that during the Sierra Leonean civil war that lasted between 1991-2002, women
played an active role in ceasing the war, however, in the post-war era, they were
principally ignored in the political and peacebuilding negotiation processes making the
post-war Sierra Leone gender insensitive whilst re-instituting "the physical and structural
gender-based violence against women" during the war era. Using the conceptual
framework of human security this thesis argues that the non-engagement of women in the
formal peace negotiation processes, whose abilities are tremendous and indispensable for
sustainable peacebuilding is an abnormality that would constantly pose multiple
challenges to Sierra Leone and may in turn result in unsustainable peacebuilding processes
and impede the actualization of the Millennium Development Goals through a resurgence
of violence if thoughtful efforts are not taken to rectify this issue.
