Changing the conversation: Queering the women, peace and security agend

Fri 8 December, 2pm via Zoom

What does meaningful conversation on women, peace and security look like? What does queering the agenda mean – and how can it help change the conversation?

This session, part of Human Rights Festival and co hosted by Women’s Platform and HEReNI, will introduce the Queering the Women, Peace and Security agenda toolkit, developed by Queen’s University Belfast with Christian Aid and the Colombian LGBTQ+ organisation Colombia Diversa. It will highlight experiences from Colombia on engaging LGBTQIA+ groups with peacebuilding, and explore how learning from Colombia can support practice elsewhere. HEReNI will also share a perspective on LGBTQ+ groups and peacebuilding in Northern Ireland.
