PeaceWomen Across the Globe

We are the growing international network for women's participation in peacebuilding.

PeaceWomen Across the Globe is an internationally active feminist peace organisation based in Bern. We network women from war- and conflict-affected regions and support them in demanding their rights, helping to shape peace processes and thus creating a more peaceful world. We advocate for sustainable and visible women’s peace work.

Focusing on the following sustainable development goals (SDGs)

Gender Equality
Reduced Inequalities
Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions
Partnerships to achieve the Goals

How we work

We focus on three areas:

Peacebuilding: We seek to involve women, especially marginalised women, in peace and conflict transformation processes.

Networking: Our core is the global network Feminists Connecting for Peace, a platform for peace activists to share ideas, learn together and promote feminist peace policies.

Political work: Working with civil society partners, we advocate for women's participation in peace processes, women's rights and respect for basic human rights standards.

... and why

At the heart of our work is the evidence that women are disproportionately affected by armed conflict, political fragility and violence, yet their experience and knowledge is often overlooked in peace processes.
