  1. Caring Responsibilities Erode Security Institutions' Operational Readiness

    Despite efforts to boost female representation, women remain underrepresented in UN peace operations, making up only 10% of uniformed personnel. A new Monash University study reveals that caring responsibilities are a significant barrier to women's participation in defence, policing, and peace operations.

  2. A Day for the World to Say Sorry

    From Australia’s National Sorry Day Toward an International Day of Truth, Repentance, and Repair

    A PeaceGrooves Reflection

    There are words so overused that they risk becoming weightless. Sorry is one of them. We say it when we bump into someone in a hallway, when we answer an email too late, when we make an insignificant mistake. Yet there are times when sorry is not small at all. There are wounds so deep, so deliberately inflicted, and so long denied that the speaking of sorrow becomes an act of public truth.

    Australia’s National Sorry Day, observed each year on May 26, is such a day. It remembers the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children forcibly removed from their families, communities, languages, and cultures under government policies now associated with the Stolen Generations. The date marks the anniversary of the 1997 tabling of the Bringing Them Home report, the landmark national inquiry that gathered testimony from survivors and documented the devastation caused by these removals. The report called not only for recognition of what had happened, but for apology, healing, reparations, family reunion, access to records, and measures ensuring such violations would never recur.

    National Sorry Day did not begin as a sentimental holiday….

  11. Wars are often justified with political arguments, but the reality on the ground is simple: civilians suffer the most.
    Many people around the world accuse Israel and the United States of playing major roles in conflicts that have devastated parts of the Middle East for years.
    If global leaders truly care about humanity, diplomacy must replace bombs.

  12. "The aspiring autocrat knows how to survive. The Venezuela venture was another act of lawless chaos that further emboldened Trump to look around the hemisphere and wonder aloud at taking over Colombia, Mexico, Cuba and Greenland.

    In any previous era such would be considered the unhinged ravings of a madman. Today? He's daring us to look the other way."

  14. "In the long list of Trump's brazen deflections and acts of unbridled arrogance, his invasion of Venezuela and capture of Nicolás Maduro certainly competes for top of the list. It was a breathtaking example of his self-absorbed and illiterate approach to foreign policy. ...

    He wants the oil. He wants revenge. He wants to distract."

  16. "Worst of all, it encourages Putin to continue his war in Ukraine and gives the green light to China to use its military to take over Taiwan and bully other Asian nations.

    Trump's mix of isolationism and interventionism is disastrous for America and the world."

  18. "Despite Trump's infatuation with fossil fuels, Venezuelan oil may not be a good investment, especially now that wind and solar energy is cheaper than fossil fuels.

    Trump's war is illegal, unwise, immoral and a waste of money. It harms both Venezuela and the United States."

  20. "Trump bluntly says it is about oil, even though American oil companies are not eager to invest billions in Venezuelan oil production granted the political uncertainty. In addition, since Venezuelan oil is high in sulfur and difficult to refine, it sells for about $15 a barrel less than brent crude oil, which is currently selling at about $60 a barrel."

  22. "The result of Trump isolationism is that the world is less safe, and no one is better off economically except billionaires. ...

    Trump does not pretend he is defending democracy and human rights. He is not supporting the installation of the actual winner of the last Venezuelan presidential election."
