| dc.description.abstract | This thesis explores factors that aid in creating positive experiences for female ex-combatants in Disarmament, Demobilization, and Reintegration (DDR) campaigns. Utilizing Sierra Leone as a focused case study, it explores how DDR design and implementation impacts women’s transition from combatant to civilian. Through critical analysis I identify three main factors that lead towards the betterment of women’s experiences in DDR programs. This qualitative research project has implications for DDR programs around the world and throughout the practice’s history. | |
