Geneva Peace Forum: Rethinking women’s meaningful participation in peace processes

A panel at the Geneva Peace Forum will challenge the narrow focus on women’s “participation at the table” and explore participation as a multi-level, process-oriented approach. In a time marked by geopolitical tensions, shrinking civic space and pushback against the Women, Peace and Security agenda, identifying practical and politically feasible ways to strengthen women’s influence across peace processes is needed. The event is organised by the OSCE in cooperation with PeaceWomen Across the Globe. The panel will be moderated by our director Deborah Schibler.

The head of our Colombia office is among the speakers.
