“We need to rescript: What is peace for us?”. In this video, hear from a distinguished South Asian peacebuilder and academic, Rita Manchanda, the Senior Executive and Research Director at the South Asia Forum for Human Rights.

She speaks about current challenges for the feminist movement in South Asia, new perspectives for the Women, Peace and Security agenda and the need to make space for young women.

The Peace in Partnership video series is helping to build momentum for a reinvigorated peace movement that addresses the realities facing women and girls in the region. Join UN Women and our partners as we advocate for civil society leadership and collective action to advance the Women, Peace and Security agenda in South Asia.

UN Women and the Government of Japan are forging partnerships to accelerate the meaningful participation of women and their male allies in peace and security decision-making and processes at all levels in Asia and the Pacific.
