  • Interview with Dr. Fatou Bensouda


    Henriette Müller (Assistant Professor of Gender, Governance & Society) has recently interviewed the first female Chief Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, Her Excellency Dr. Fatou Bensouda, as part of a new initiative entitled ‘Women in Diplomacy’ introduced by LSE IDEAS, Foreign Policy Think Tank. The initiative’s mission is to address women’s continued underrepresentation in diplomacy and foreign affairs. As part of it, LSE IDEAS has launched a podcast series that brings together researchers, practitioners, and women leaders of diplomacy and international organizations, to explore how policy-making processes can produce more gender-sensitive policy outcomes. The podcast featuring the interview with Dr. Bensouda, as well as other episodes of this series, are available here.
