Many of its predecessors \u2014 including al-Qaeda \u2014 also had their share of female supporters. Yet the meteoric rise of IS appears to have brought about a leap in the nature and extent of women\u2019s roles within jihadi groups. Alternatively, one could suggest that the increased assimilation of women into the organisation in itself contributed to IS\u2019s swift ascent.<\/p>\n<p>What is certain is that women have become indispensable to IS, both in conflict areas and in the West (including in the European Union). They play their role in the organisation\u2019s state-building enterprise, produce and disseminate propaganda and have seemingly been granted more proactive roles on the \u2018battlefield\u2019. The worry is that this increase in the involvement of women could pave the way for potentially major changes in the role of jihadi women in the future.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.w-t-w.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/women_in_islamic_state_propaganda.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Women in Islamic State Propaganda<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-35978\" src=\"https:\/\/www.w-t-w.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/women-in-is-img.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.w-t-w.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/women-in-is-img.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.w-t-w.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/women-in-is-img-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.w-t-w.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/women-in-is-img-768x320.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.w-t-w.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/women-in-is-img-500x208.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Roles and incentives IS is not the first jihadi movement to attract female followers.
