As Canada gets ready to introduce a third National Action Plan on Women, Peace and Security (WPS), there is no better time to reflect on the impact of state-level WPS instruments — like national action plans and feminist foreign policy commitments, as well as international WPS programs, institutions, and processes — like UN gender advisory teams, WPS-informed peace processes, and new constitutions. There is a diversity of work being done in what we might call the WPS space across Canadian campuses, the NGO sector, and research networks. As such, this roundtable brings together participants to critically reflect on the future of WPS as a feminist project from our various research, practitioner, and activist perspectives.
