Panel discussion with experts from Colombia, Nepal and the Philippines: the three countries are at different points in their peace processes. What are the differences and similarities? What role do women play in reconciliation and reconstruction? What can the countries learn from each other so that peace in their countries lasts?

What role do women play in reconciliation and reconstruction? What can the countries learn from each other so that peace in their countries lasts.
