Workshop: Women* on the Move: Gender, forced migration, and peacebuilding
Next week, women* activists and researchers will be addressing issues of peacebuilding and forced migration from feminist perspectives. Approximately thirty participants from diverse backgrounds and origins will engage in dialogue and reflection on these phenomena, aiming to generate guidelines for public action.
The workshop Women* on the Move: Gender, forced migration, and peacebuilding aim to create a space for encounter and collaborative work among women* activists in situations of forced migration, social researchers, and allies. The goal is to facilitate exchange among women who, through their migration experiences and activism, develop feminist political initiatives both locally and transnationally on peace-related issues.
The workshop is coordinated by Gina Wirz-Suárez, Geneva Graduate Institute, currently on academic stay at GRETA (University Pompeu Fabra), and María Eugenia Blandón from the Memory, Coexistence, and Reconciliation area of the ICIP (Catalan Institute for Peace).
It is facilitated by the methodological and pedagogical expertise of Mar Maiques Díaz, a specialist in peace education, methodological-pedagogical innovation in conflict resolution, and prevention from feminist perspectives. We also have the collaboration of Sol Trejos (LaSole), guest illustrator for the graphic piece of the conferences.
