Feminists Connecting for Peace, our global network of peacebuilders, is at the heart of our work. Together with our network members, we organise physical and digital exchanges and network meetings, provide demand-driven capacity building and workshops, work on joint advocacy, develop Feminist Peace Initiatives and provide psychosocial support.
We invite you to browse this page to get an impression of the network’s diverse activities.
