More than Victims: The Role of Women in Conflict Prevention
On September 12, 2002, the Wilson Center and Inclusive Security co-sponsored a conference, “More Than Victims: The Role of Women in Conflict Prevention.” The aim of the meeting was to move beyond the stereotypical images of women as victims in conflict and to explore their complex experiences as fighters, peace builders, survivors, and protectors. While highlighting many of the challenges that remain, this publication provides concrete examples of how the international community can support women’s efforts and peacebuilding processes.
