This project explores the meaning and impact of this turn to feminist foreign policymaking (FFP), and the policy lessons that can be learned for the UK context. Gender equality is a clearly stated aim of the vast majority of international and transnational organisations. Sustainable development goal (SDG) 5 calls on all nations to achieve gender equality and empower women and girls. United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 and the successive 8 Women, Peace and Security (WPS) resolutions state that countries must consider the needs and rights of women in their security policy. Key bodies, such as the UN, the World Bank and the European Union, promote the goal of gender equality. Equally, in recent decades, nation states have adopted policies to address women's rights, with many creating new Ministries, government positions or legal frameworks in order to do so. Recently, some states have gone even further and adopted an explicitly feminist approach to (particularly foreign) policymaking (specifically Sweden, Canada, France and Mexico). This project involved in-depth comparative case study work of the above four countries. This project has three main goals. Firstly, it aims to understand what the underlying principles of FFP are, and what these states mean when they use the term feminism. Secondly, it is underpinned by a desire for greater academic and policy clarity into the gendered nature of foreign policymaking. It aims to create a clearer framework through which we can understand how states come to address gender in their foreign policy, and in what ways they can achieve this. Secondly, it aims to generate insights into FFP which will speak to policymakers, practitioners and politicians, particularly in the UK, and provide recommendations for the development of foreign policymaking that is attentive to gender. The first phase of the project will see the collation of policy documents from across the four case study countries. The project will focus primarily on documents which outline FFP but will also look at sources such as speeches made by officials to announce policy uptake, and grey literature produced by NGOs/CSOs. The second phase will involve in-depth, elite interviews with 1) government officials (e.g. civil servants; foreign ministry officials; political advisors to government or politicians), 2) politicians and 3) NGO/CSO representatives in the case study countries. Phase 3 will involve the analysis of the above data and the development of a framework to better understand approaches to gender within foreign policy, with the aim that such a framework can be used to promote and scaffold further work beyond this project. The project will be supported throughout by a Stakeholder and Academic Advisory Group. This group provides an international network of policymakers, practitioners and academic researchers, with particularly strong links to those working in and around the issue of gender in foreign policy. Feedback loops with this group have been built into the research design of the project, and the project will conclude with a national dissemination event to which all members of the group will be invited.

该项目探讨了转向女权主义外交政策制定 (FFP) 的意义和影响，以及可以从英国背景中吸取的政策教训。性别平等是绝大多数国际和跨国组织明确提出的目标。可持续发展目标 (SDG) 5 呼吁所有国家实现性别平等并赋予妇女和女童权力。联合国安理会第1325号决议和随后的8项妇女、和平与安全（WPS）决议指出，各国在安全政策中必须考虑妇女的需求和权利。联合国、世界银行和欧盟等主要机构致力于促进性别平等的目标。同样，近几十年来，民族国家采取了解决妇女权利的政策，许多国家为此设立了新的部委、政府职位或法律框架。最近，一些国家甚至走得更远，在（特别是外交）决策中采用了明确的女权主义方法（特别是瑞典、加拿大、法国和墨西哥）。本项目涉及上述四个国家的深入比较案例研究工作。该项目有三个主要目标。首先，它旨在了解FFP的基本原则是什么，以及这些状态在使用女权主义一词时意味着什么。其次，它的基础是希望在学术和政策上更加明确外交政策制定的性别本质。它旨在创建一个更清晰的框架，通过该框架我们可以了解各国如何在其外交政策中解决性别问题，以及如何实现这一目标。其次，它旨在深入了解 FFP，与政策制定者、从业者和政治家（尤其是英国的政策制定者、从业者和政治家）进行交流，并为制定关注性别问题的外交政策制定提供建议。该项目的第一阶段将整理来自四个案例研究国家的政策文件。该项目将主要关注概述 FFP 的文件，但也会关注官员宣布政策采纳的演讲等来源，以及非政府组织/民间社会组织制作的灰色文献。第二阶段将涉及对案例研究国家的 1) 政府官员（例如公务员、外交部官员、政府或政治家的政治顾问）、2) 政治家和 3) 非政府组织/民间社会组织代表进行深入的精英访谈。第三阶段将包括分析上述数据并制定一个框架，以更好地理解外交政策中的性别问题方法，目的是利用该框架来促进和支撑本项目之外的进一步工作。该项目将得到利益相关者和学术咨询小组的全程支持。该小组提供了一个由政策制定者、从业者和学术研究人员组成的国际网络，与那些在外交政策中的性别问题及其周围工作的人们有着特别密切的联系。该小组的反馈循环已纳入该项目的研究设计中，该项目将以一次全国传播活动结束，该活动的所有成员都将被邀请参加。
