Peace Building
Tracing "Feminist Peace" from Beijing to MDGs and Beyond
Since 1996, Isis-WICCE had demonstrated an impressive alternative to the world's limited responses to situations of armed conflict particularly in addressing women's dire needs. We have had extensive experience and expertise working with women organisations, strategic partners and survivors of armed and post conflict, globally. Therefore, twenty years of Beijing is significant to Isis-WICCE's transformative journey of tracing feminist peace, which has been a solution in itself because it emerges out of the necessity to respond to challenges and barriers women in conflict communities face and enable them become change agents. We have challenged the mainstream model of post conflict reconstruction. We have moved women from victimhood to resilience. This paper, summarizes Isis-WICCE's contribution to the achievement of the key aspects of the Beijing Platform for Action. Working in post conflict settings has been a challenging and fulfilling experience too. It also provides recommendations that will contribute to the post 2015 sustainable development goals
