The reintegration of girl child soldiers in post-conflict Sierra Leone remains critically impeded by entrenched societal norms and cultural practices. This thesis seeks to unravel how these cultural biases and the stigma attached to wartime experiences disrupt the reintegration process. Employing Martha Nussbaum’s Capability Approach and Carol Smart’s Feminist Legal Theory, the research assesses the extent to which fundamental human capabilities are compromised and evaluates the efficacy of post-conflict legislative reforms. Through a qualitative case study methodology and comprehensive document analysis, the study reveals that societal stigma and gender norms significantly obstruct reintegration, undermining capabilities across various life domains. Despite the theoretical support provided by legislative reforms, their practical impact is limited by cultural resistance and systemic barriers. The conclusion underscores the need for holistic strategies that address both legal and cultural obstacles to facilitate effective reintegration and promote gender equality in post-conflict settings.
