englischJagoda Rošul-Gajic examines the implementation of international women’s human rights norms by focusing on the role of women’s NGOs as the strongest advocates of norms in post-war Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. She addresses the question of what role international mechanisms such as the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, the Beijing Platform for Action and the UN Resolution 1325 on women, peace and security play in transitional societies, what factors hinder or support the implementation of norms and what role international actors operating in post-war societies play.

Since national and international actors did not comply with international gender specific norms and standards, she comes to the conclusion that women’s NGOs have been working with a double strategy to force national and international actors to implement change. In order to act gender-sensitively, Jagoda Rošul-Gajic claims, it is not only the national actors who need to be socialised to comply with international norms, but also the international political elite.
