Conciliation Resources put forward its submission to the Global Study on Women, Peace and Security drawing on its support to women peacebuilders and its vision for more inclusive peace processes. The submission includes an in-depth analysis of the Mindanao peace process, and concludes with recommendations for UN member states and agencies.

Working with local organisations and communities in the border regions of Côte d’Ivoire, Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, Conciliation Resources will contribute to the prevention and mitigation of violence triggered or exacerbated by the Ebola crisis, and official responses to it.

This position paper explores current approaches to peace processes and how they should be strengthened in order to promote the conditions for durable peace, and the work we do to support peace processes that go beyond official talks and represent diverse constituencies.
