Including women in grassroots peacebuilding
We are working alongside local peacebuilding organisations to develop the skills of women across the Commonwealth, recognise and support their existing work in mediation. This work is part of our Women Mediators across the Commonwealth project and aims to allow women to have greater influence in formal and informal peace processes.
Connecting women mediators across the Commonwealth
Women Mediators across the Commonwealth (WMC) is a network which connects women with a broad range of mediation knowledge and experience. The network advocates for the increased recognition of women mediators, and their participation in peace processes regionally and internationally. It also provides opportunities for the members to learn from and support each other.
Curbing the impact of anti-terror laws on peacebuilding
We are playing a leading role in finding solutions to the impact of UK counter-terrorism legislation and sanctions on the work of peacebuilders and humanitarian organisations.

Negotiating peace in Ethiopia
For more than two decades, the Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF) has been fighting for self-determination for Somalis in the Somali Regional State of Ethiopia (also known as the Ogaden region.) In 2018, with support from Conciliation Resources, the ONLF signed a peace deal with the Government of Ethiopia.
