Women’s inclusion in peacebuilding processes is essential for long-term success. This is proven. Gender-equal participation contributes to longer, and lasting peace after conflict. For their pieces, photographers should consider:
- What is your vision of peace?
- How do experience peace in your life? What brings you peace?
- How can we bring more peace to the world?
