Peace is more than the absence of war. Patriarchal power relations, structural violence and physical or psychological violence against women are also obstacles on the path to lasting peace. This is why we are committed to peacebuilding with a feminist, intersectional perspective. And because our understanding of peace is comprehensive.

What images do the words "peace processes" evoke in your mind? Do you imagine years of negotiations culminating in a ceremony where the parties to the conflict sign an agreement, followed by a photo of the handshake that goes around the world? We have scrutinised and deconstructed this common image and taken an in-depth look at peace processes, as well as the question: "How do women influence peace processes?" The result of this work is a graphic representation of the different stages of peace processes. With this tool, we want to focus on the role women play and where they exert influence to drive peace processes and prevent setbacks.

Civil society engagement plays an important role in feminist peace work. Worldwide, civil society organisations, including numerous women's and human rights organisations, are increasingly confronted with repression. Their socio-political action is thus severely restricted. We support projects from our global network that counteract the shrinking of civil society's scope for action.

Feminists Connecting for Peace is our growing global network of peacebuilders. It grew out of the initiative “1000 Women for the 2005 Nobel Peace Prize” and has developed into a global community of peace activists. It aims to provide safety and solidarity; enable local, regional and global advocacy; give visibility to peacebuilders; ensure exchange, shared learning and knowledge sharing; and facilitate access to decision-making, resources and relevant actors. Through our Feminist Peace Initiatives (FPI), we provide technical and financial support to local, innovative and feminist peacebuilding initiatives and projects of our network members.
