Claiming Our Space - Emerging Feminist Voices for Peace

Description

Nobel Peace Laureate Leymah Gbowee hosted a ground-breaking Summit, bringing together inspiring young activists from 20 countries busy breaking gender barriers and building peace in their home communities. Working together with five trail-blazing Nobel Peace Laureates, they strategized on how to build a multi-generational global feminist peace movement.

Key message
