The participants offered sobering insight into ongoing
developments, while highlighting the critical work of women in promoting rights
and dignity for all, justice and reconciliation, human security and democracy.
In these difficult times when human rights– particularly women’s and minority
rights–and democratic principles are already being compromised, women in the
region offer a stark contrast as they advocate for a clear vision of
peace, pluralism and prosperity for their countries. They also represent
the aspirations of a wide cross section of the public in the region, but they
lack the infrastructure or resources to amplify their message. The findings
here reflect the key emergent themes, and priorities.
