Women Leading the Way: Dialogue for Peacebuilding, Reconciliation, and Social Cohesion was a groundbreaking conference held in March to examine how to elevate women’s leadership in peacebuilding and community cohesion efforts.

170 women from diverse faith backgrounds—including Sikh, Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Bahá’í, and those of no faith – gathered to demonstrate the transformative power of leadership grounded in faith, showcasing how their efforts in peacebuilding have led to profound societal changes.

Nisa-Nashim members were part of the inspired audience, planning committee and speakers panels, representing our wonderful organisation across the board.
