We document migrant women’s activism and collaboration with policymakers in relation to the Women, Peace and Security agenda, a global assemblage of policy, legislation, and advocacy grown out of women’s activism at the United Nations Security Council. We argue that this framework offers both opportunities and constraints for migration activism. Refugee and migrant women successfully use the agenda to unsettle stereotypes of passivity and voicelessness, while navigating expectations of peacefulness, consensual dialogue, and heteronormative femininity.application/pdfenIn CopyrightRefugeesMigrationDisplacementEuropeBordersMigrant and refugee activists as security agents: Openings in the Women, Peace and Security AgendaArticle - Refereed2023-01-30Territory, Politics, GovernanceReeves, Audrey [0000-0003-0589-1992]
