| dc.description.abstract | A study on the mandate of deployed women in AMISOM in Dhobley Somalia from the year 2013 to 2023 sought to among others establish the unique roles and strategies women employ within the AMISOM mission. The research employed a descriptive survey design blending qualitative and quantitative data collection methods. A diverse set of stakeholders, including military personnel, policymakers, and representatives from international organizations affiliated with AMISOM were engaged in the study. Key informant interviews and questionnaires were used to collect data. The study established that while there was widespread involvement of women in AMISOM activities and initiatives, there are areas which require improvement. These include enhancing women visibility, addressing barriers to their access to leadership opportunities, promoting institutional support for gender equality, provision of adequate support and resources for women-led initiatives, and mainstreaming gender in mission policies and practices. This paper is a detailed presentation of the study findings specifically on participation and contribution of women to AMISOM in Dhobley Somalia during the years 2013 to 2023. | |
