Women sustaining peace in Colombia, Nepal and the PhilippinesFor more than a decade PeaceWomen Across the Globe has been working in close partnership with three organisations in Colombia, Nepal and the Philippines. What these countries have in common: They have formally ended armed conflicts, but there is still no peace. Women peacebuilders from these countries will share their achievements and insights on sustaining the peace momentum during transitional justice processes and preventing backsliding into armed conflict. Join us to find out what applicable lessons can be drawn from these three contexts. |

Human Rights Film Festival: women between war and peaceThe Syrian documentary film "Under the sky of Damascus" demonstrates what it means for women to fight against misogyny and sexism in a country where there is no consensus as to whether the armed conflict is over, whether it is continuing or whether a new one has already begun. At a panel discussion, our colleague Karin Widmer and the Syrian human rights activist Amal Naser will talk about women's experiences and options for action in conflict-affected countries. |
