This report investigates protection risks and gender norms across four case studies: South Sudan, Iraq, Myanmar, and Ukraine.

The report investigates the perceptions, motives, and practices of non-state armed groups and de facto authorities regarding children's access to essential services across four case studies: Mali, Myanmar, the Occupied Palestinian Territory, and Yemen.

This research has involved three key political movements or entities: the Islah Party, the Southern Transitional Council, and Ansar Allah to better understand the factors that encourage these movements to promote and implement the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) Framework, especially the protection and participation of women and girls in situations of conflict.

The report and policy brief analyse the practices, policies, and challenges of two Ethnic Resistance Organisations (EROs) from Myanmar on women's protection in conflict and their participation in the EROs and in peacebuilding processes. The research offers a set of recommendations for the international community and for the leaders of the two movements.

The study presents the lessons learned from the process of separation and reintegration of children from the ranks of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia - People's Army (FARC - EP) in Colombia. Based on these lessons learned, it makes practical recommendations for the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria, which have committed to the United Nations to separate minors from their ranks.

This report summarises the main discussions at a meeting held in Geneva on 23 May 2019 about the possible legal solutions for members of the Islamic State detained in North-East Syria.
