May 9th, 2023 | Despite the global norm favoring women鈥檚 participation in peace negotiations, women continue to face constraints in accessing, influencing, and benefitting from peace settlements. This special issue of International Negotiation lays the groundwork for a future research agenda, calling for attention to gender-based analysis; mixed-method research designs, comparative case studies, and attention to 鈥渘egative鈥� cases; more examination of the relationship between gender-inclusivity at peace talks and the subsequent conditions for women; and policy recommendations for international actors. This introduction to the issue provides a review of the literature on women and peace negotiations, offers an overview of the issue鈥檚 six articles, and proposes a future research agenda.
