Women and youth taking action for peace: who is a peacebuilder?

“Peace processes” are often understood as formal negotiations between the armed parties of a conflict culminating in the signing of a peace agreement. At Geneva Peace Week 2025, we are presenting a workshop in which we propose a more comprehensive understanding of peace processes. This understanding recognises the complexities and recognises the diverse actions and roles of women and youth in peacebuilding. Together with the participants we deconstruct common assumptions.
