Gender and Post-Conflict

WOMEN, PEACE AND SECURITY IN AFGHANISTAN 

The Campaign is a member of the Activist Group for Afghan Women Leaders that supported the Brussels Afghan Women Leaders Summit on 4/5th December 2001. Following this Summit, International Alert has been involved in the working group supporting international resource allocation to women's organisations and gender sensitive work in the reconstruction of Afghanistan. Through this work we have been lobbying the United Nations to ensure that women's needs are addressed. The Campaign is also part of the UK Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) working group on Afghan Women.
