The role of women in peacebuilding is multifaceted and vital to the creation of sustainable and inclusive peace. Throughout history, women have played crucial roles in fostering harmony, resolving conflicts, and rebuilding communities in the aftermath of violence. Despite often being marginalized or overlooked, their contributions are integral to achieving lasting peace.
Historical Perspectives:
In examining the historical context, it becomes evident that women have been at the forefront of peace movements. From the suffragette movements of the late 19th and early 20th centuries to more recent examples like the Liberian and Sierra Leonean women who played pivotal roles in ending civil wars in their respective countries, women have consistently demonstrated their commitment to peace.
Inherent Peacemakers:
The unique perspective that women bring to peacebuilding is rooted in their roles as nurturers and caregivers. This intrinsic quality positions them as natural peacemakers, as they are often deeply invested in the well-being of their families and communities. Women's contributions to peace extend beyond traditional notions of diplomacy, encompassing everyday acts of bridge-building, reconciliation, and community-building.
Addressing Root Causes:
One key aspect of women's role in peacebuilding is their ability to address the root causes of conflicts. Women often possess a nuanced understanding of the socio-economic and cultural dynamics that contribute to violence. Their involvement ensures a more comprehensive approach to conflict resolution, tackling issues such as poverty, inequality, and discrimination that may fuel unrest.
Women in Formal Peace Processes:
While women have historically played informal roles in peacebuilding, there is a growing recognition of the need for their inclusion in formal peace processes. The United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325, adopted in 2000, marked a significant step in acknowledging the importance of women's participation in peace negotiations and decision-making. This resolution recognizes the impact of conflict on women and highlights the need for their active involvement in conflict prevention, resolution, and post-conflict reconstruction.
Challenges and Barriers:
Despite progress, women still face numerous challenges in asserting their roles in peacebuilding. Gender-based discrimination, limited access to education and resources, and societal expectations often hinder women's full participation. Additionally, stereotypes about women's capabilities in the realm of conflict resolution persist, posing barriers to their inclusion in formal peace processes.

What Are Human Rights?
Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, regardless of race, sex, nationality, ethnicity, language, religion, or any other status. Human rights include the right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and torture, freedom of opinion and expression, the right to work and education, and many more. Everyone is entitled to these rights, without discrimination.
International Human Rights Law
International human rights law lays down the obligations of Governments to act in certain ways or to refrain from certain acts, in order to promote and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms of individuals or groups.
One of the great achievements of the United Nations is the creation of a comprehensive body of human rights law—a universal and internationally protected code to which all nations can subscribe and all people aspire. The United Nations has defined a broad range of internationally accepted rights, including civil, cultural, economic, political and social rights. It has also established mechanisms to promote and protect these rights and to assist states in carrying out their responsibilities.
The foundations of this body of law are the Charter of the United Nations and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the General Assembly in 1945 and 1948, respectively. Since then, the United Nations has gradually expanded human rights law to encompass specific standards for women, children, persons with disabilities, minorities and other vulnerable groups, who now possess rights that protect them from discrimination that had long been common in many societies.

An Overview of Women Leaders Making a Difference Globally.ciowomenleaders
Women have made significant contributions in the enhancement of the business sectors from several functional roles right from the root to apex leadership.
Over the past year, WEDO has been marking its twentieth anniversary. Motivated by those who have come before us and who continue to work alongside us as mentors, peers and partners, we have delved into our collective history, marveling at the stories, the moments of transformation, the ebbs and flows of challenge and victory.
While inequalities and inequities endure, while the global crises that drove WEDO’s founding persist or are (as some surely are) worsened, and while fundamental counter-forces continue to threaten to roll back progress, in pockets around the world and in historic milestones at the global community level, a revolutionary momentum has remained tireless. This history in the pages ahead is not meant to be exhaustive – far from it. It is unabashedly subjective – each moment a stone in the foundation for work ahead – highlighted partly because, in gearing up for Rio+20, a milestone for WEDO, as well as for the wider women’s, environmental and development movements, we all seek inspiration. It is so easy to become frustrated – especially as many of the same issues and the same rhetoric flood the table once again.
But we go on. Among Bella’s remarkable qualities was her tremendous capacity for optimism. She drew inspiration and motivation from all the women around the world with whom she worked. She celebrated them and, in so doing, she celebrated the momentum of this movement. In turn, we celebrate the countless individuals, organizations, networks and movements who have contributed to every bit of this shared history – from tiny flickers of progress to long-lasting change. Cate Owren Executive Director, on behalf of the WEDO Team
