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.

该项目探讨了这一转变对女性主义外交政策制定（FFP）的意义和影响，以及可以为英国背景吸取的政策教训。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。联合国安全理事会第1325号决议和随后的8项妇女、和平与安全决议指出，各国必须在其安全政策中考虑妇女的需求和权利。联合国、世界银行和欧洲联盟等主要机构都在促进两性平等的目标。同样，近几十年来，民族国家采取了处理妇女权利问题的政策，许多国家为此设立了新的部委、政府职位或法律的框架。最近，一些国家甚至走得更远，在政策制定（特别是外交政策）方面采取了明确的女权主义做法（特别是瑞典、加拿大、法国和墨西哥）。该项目涉及对上述四个国家进行深入的比较案例研究。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，以及这些国家使用女权主义一词时的含义。其次，它的基础是希望在学术和政策上更清楚地了解外交决策的性别性质。它旨在建立一个更清晰的框架，通过这个框架，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。第二，它的目的是使人们深入了解外交政策和政策制定者、从业者和政治家，特别是联合王国的政策制定者、从业者和政治家，并为制定关注性别问题的外交政策提供建议。该项目的第一阶段将对四个案例研究国家的政策文件进行整理。该项目将主要侧重于概述财政促进计划的文件，但也将研究各种来源，如官员宣布采纳政策的讲话和非政府组织/民间社会组织编写的灰色文献。第二阶段将涉及深入的精英访谈：（1）政府官员（如公务员、外交部官员、政府或政治家的政治顾问）;（2）政治家;（3）案例研究国家的非政府组织/民间社会组织代表。第三阶段将涉及分析上述数据和制定一个框架，以更好地理解外交政策中的性别方法，目的是利用这一框架促进和支持该项目以外的进一步工作。该项目将得到利益相关者和学术咨询小组的支持。该小组提供了一个由决策者、从业人员和学术研究人员组成的国际网络，与从事外交政策中的性别平等问题工作的人员有着特别密切的联系。与该小组的反馈回路已纳入项目的研究设计，项目结束时将举行一次全国宣传活动，邀请该小组的所有成员参加。
