Students in the Elliott School of International Affairs launched a consortium last month to promote women in the study of national security.
The D.C. Student Consortium on Women, Peace and Security is made up of 18 universities throughout the DMV partnering with a nonpartisan working group studying women in peace building and seeks to share expertise on women’s and gender issues in security and foreign policy. Students said members of the consortium study subjects and identity groups that are often overlooked within security and foreign policy, like the LGBTQ community, before writing and submitting policy briefs to members of Congress and other policymakers.
