This ConnexUs Thursday talk featured Myrzagul Baialieva, who shared innovative approaches to inclusive community dialogue from her work in Kyrgyzstan, focusing on the intersection of climate change, gender equality, and social cohesion.
This interactive session explored two creative methodologies—Speed Dating and Design Thinking—used to bring together diverse community members and decision-makers to identify local challenges and co-create practical solutions.
Myrzagul reflected on lessons learned from facilitating hundreds of conversations across the Batken region and how these approaches helped amplify women’s voices in peacebuilding.
Whether you’re working on community-based peacebuilding, gender-responsive governance, or climate adaptation, this session will offer practical inspiration and field-tested methods you can apply in your context.
