Impact Analysis of Germany's Feminist Foreign Policy in Arms Control

This collabo­rative project between PRIF and the European Leadership Network (ELN) aims to analyze the impact of Germany’s Feminist Foreign Policy (FFP) measures in the field of arms control. The project evaluates FFP measures in arms control, focusing on three key policy areas: Nuclear arms control; Humani­tarian arms control & Regulation of new tech­nologies. The evalu­ation examines both the successes and challenges in applying feminist approaches. Based on this analysis, concrete policy recommen­dations will be developed to further strengthen feminist and gender-transformative per­spectives in multi­lateral arms control and dis­armament policy more generally. The project is based in a compre­hensive analysis of public policy documents and diplo­matic state­ments, as well as qualitative inter­views with staff from the German Federal Foreign Office, diplomatic service, and experts from civil society and inter­national organi­zations. The findings will be compiled into an internal report for the Federal Foreign Office as well as into public publi­cations.
