The Regional Women Leadership for Peace and Security course took place between 27-10 March 2023, at the Peace and Conflict Studies School in Karen.
The two-week course was sponsored by British Peace Support Team - Africa (United Kingdom) and has 18 participants drawn from African countries namely; Burundi, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Morroco, Sudan, Seychelles, Uganda, and Zambia.
Recent research has demonstrated that by achieving gender equality, we are able to prevent conflict. Similarly, peace is more sustainable when women lead and participate in peace processes.
The course enabled participants to understand peace and security in Africa from a gender perspective and to strengthen participants' knowledge and skills on womenβs leadership roles at different phases of conflict.
