Gaming for Peace: gender awareness training and the Polish military

Holohan A., Pyz J., Trochowska K.

Security and Defence Quarterly

2018

Vol. 21, No. 4

41--57

Despite regulatory and legal changes, women are persistently underrepresented in military organisations on peacekeeping missions. This article argues that part of the reason for this can be found in persistent stereotypical ideas about gender roles, and looks at the attitudes and experience of Polish military personnel who have been deployed on peacekeeping missions as evidence of this. However, witnessing other militaries stance on gender, where such stereotypes are still there, but not as entrenched, can cause personnel to contextualise if not question their own organisation’s stance on gender. Sixteen Polish military peacekeepers were interviewed in-depth about their experiences on peacekeeping missions as part of a European H2020 project, Gaming for Peace (GAP). The interviews were used to build scenarios for a digital role-playing game to develop soft skills among peacekeeping personnel, and these soft skills included gender awareness. This article analyses the interviews to explore the experience of gender for both men and women in the Polish military, and shows that there is an urgent need for the type of training in gender awareness that is part of GAP.

Integration of gender training into existing pre-deployment training programmes in Ukraine

Lessons learned from analysis of modern conflicts and post-conflict lessons have revealed the acute need to review the current training programmes in order to adopt them to modern challenges in the field of peacekeeping. Multidimensional operations run under the auspices of the UN or NATO are not aimed at purely military gain anymore, but follow the comprehensive approach in dealing with conflict and post-conflict societies. A complex emergency environment sets a range of tasks for the modern peacekeeper, focusing more and more on dealing with humanitarian issues. Gender awareness is one of the newest and most challenging questions, both during the pre-deployment training of a future peacekeeper and the aftermath during his or her performance in the mission area. Thus, raising this awareness in pre-deployment training will increase the overall efficiency of the personnel during their tour of duty. This paper deals with the ways of implementing gender training into already set pre-deployment training programmes and shows the strategies for integrating it into the lectures without disrupting the overall training methodology.
