How War Affects Women and Marginalised Communities | Gendering Conflict | Feminism in India

For centuries, women's bodies have been used as battlegrounds in times of conflict—whether for political gains, revenge, or as tools of patriarchal violence. In the first episode of our new series Gendering Conflict: War on Women and Others, we explore how war, occupation, and instability disproportionately impact women and marginalised genders. From Manipur to Kashmir, Palestine to the DRC, sexual violence has been weaponised to assert power and silence resistance. Forced displacement, unsafe abortions, and systemic impunity only deepen the crisis. Why is gendered violence a persistent tool of war? And what does justice look like for survivors?
