Join us for an inspiring session that delves into the groundbreaking She – The Peacebuilder project, an initiative that has empowered 75 ‘women peace architects’ from across Pakistan to become key players in the country’s peacebuilding landscape. Implemented by Search for Common Ground in partnership with the Aurat Foundation, Kadam Communications and Consultants (KCC), and Glow, this project has been instrumental in enhancing the role and influence of women in transforming violent extremism and fostering peace in diverse communities.
Since its inception in September 2021, the project has engaged women from various sectors and identity groups across all regions of Pakistan, equipping them with the tools and support needed to lead peacebuilding efforts at the grassroots level. This session will not only showcase the remarkable journeys and achievements of these women peace architects but will also provide valuable insights into the best practices, challenges, and lessons learned throughout the project’s implementation.
What to Expect:
- Stories of Transformation: Hear firsthand accounts from women peace architects who have been at the forefront of conflict resolution and peace advocacy in their communities.
- Impact Analysis: Understand the tangible impacts of the project on communities and the broader peacebuilding efforts in Pakistan.
- Best Practices & Lessons Learned: Gain actionable insights into the strategies that enabled the success of the She – The Peacebuilder project, and explore how these can be applied to other contexts.
- Future Directions: Discuss the potential for scaling these efforts and further integrating women’s leadership in peacebuilding processes across Pakistan and beyond.
This session is a must-attend for peacebuilding professionals, gender equality advocates, development practitioners, and anyone interested in the critical role of women in building and sustaining peace. Engage with experts, learn from real-world experiences, and be inspired by the stories of women who are making a difference in some of the most challenging environments.
