Abstract [en]

The following study aims to understand implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 1325 (SCR1325) in the Swedish international forces, with focus on the Swedish intelligence force in the UN peacekeeping mission in Mali, Africa. The intention is to understand how the Swedish national strategy regarding implementing SCR1325, is actually being successfully implemented on the tactical level of the Swedish military contribution in Mali. This is investigated with the help from 6 Swedish Mali veterans, who have served in the Swedish intelligence force in Mali. These veterans have answered a survey regarding their training and work, of how they involved women in the process of peace and security. Neither of the veterans had an officer training at the time leading to their deployment in Mali, which allowed this study to identify if the Swedish national strategy regarding SCR1325 was actually successfully implemented in the lower ranks of the military organization. Many scholars have observed the problem with implementing political decisions in military organizations, especially those with a feminist approach such as SCR1325. The material produced by the surveys is analyzed through an analytical framework consisting of these three variables: can, will and understand. These variables have previously been successfully used in studies regarding implementation in military organizations. The conclusion of this study is that the Swedish military organization doesn’t implement SCR1325 to its fullest. The Swedish military organization does not successfully reach their own, or the national, agenda regarding implementing SCR1325 on the tactical level. This problem is most likely because the variable of understanding is inadequate since the veterans had nearly any education regarding how to involve women in their work with peace and security.
