Women’s active participation in conflict prevention, resolution and peacebuilding presents unique and pivotal opportunities to create transformative solutions and, ultimately, more inclusive, gender equal and peaceful societies. This project aims to sustain and strengthen the impact of women peacebuilders and the work of their organizations in Afghanistan, Cameroon, Iraq, Libya, Sri Lanka, Syria and Yemen. The project works to directly support grassroots women’s organizations, through financial support alongside close mentorship and training to strengthen results in their communities. Project activities include: (1) providing grants to local women-led civil society organizations (CSOs) and capacity building to improve the implementation of their projects in fragile and conflict settings; and (2) supporting the development and dissemination of innovative tools and training, increasing the overall capacity of women-led CSOs to contribute toward mediation, peacebuilding, and support to ongoing peace processes.
