During the TPLF’s revolutionary armed struggle, female fighters constitute one third of the army. Their participation and involvement was so immense that that they assume almost every kind of roles that range from cooking to commanding officers. Since the military and overall socialization with in the armed struggle was dominated by male ethos, female fighters have developed male characters. Thus, the protracted and violent armed struggle has usurped them of their feminine qualities needed by post war society. This should have been civilianized through DDR process to rehabilitate them from the war trauma and reconcile them with the norms and values of the society. However the male laden DDR of TPLF ones again marginalized the female fighters. Therefore, without any effort made to rehabilitate them from the war traumas, reconcile them with the values and norms of the society, civilianize their skills, they demobilized and reintegrated back into the civilian society. Cognizant of these intricacies, this study aimed to explore the social, economic and political reintegration experience and trajectories of the study participants through Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Thus, the study finds that, participants of the research encountered many difficulties since the demobilization period. The major reintegration challenges they encountered are the clash between the military socialization and the patriarchical traditions of the society which results in low social footing manifested in marriage failure, low social capital, limited opportunities of leveraging societal networks etc. Divorce was the dominant marital trajectory in post-demobilization period. Even though employment in government offices appear to be the dominant livelihood trajectory, majority of them hold low paid and unskilled job positions because of their low educational level, which neither secure them economically nor give them an opportunity to influence the decisions makers. The low social and economic position of the study participants has also negatively affected the political reintegration processes. Thus, this study recommends a context and experience oriented gender sensitive DDR and particularly reintegration programs.
