| From 15th- 17th February 2022, Peace Direct, Women of Color Advancing Peace and Security (WCAPS), and Search for Common Ground, will hold a consultation on “Violence, Forced Migration and Peacebuilding”. Global migration is a hot topic, yet those most people directly impacted by factors motivating displacement are often excluded from mainstream conversations and policy discussions. We invite peacebuilders and anyone with lived experience of displacement or a commitment to immigration justice to join the conversation. It is these voices, perspectives, and experiences which should be at the forefront of solutions. |
| Peacebuilding plays an essential role in every stage of population movements. However, it is rarely considered in the context of global migration. We need a radical re-thinking in how the peacebuilding community understands its relationship to forced migration. Our discussion will tap into the link between peacebuilding and migration, and how to strengthen it. We invite you to be a part of this consultation to share your perspectives, exchange ideas, and build community between the peacebuilding and migration arenas. |
| How will it work? This conversation will take place on Peace Direct’s Platform4Dialogue discussion platform between 15th – 17th February 2022. While the consultation will be available in English, participants who speak Spanish French, and Arabic will be able to use the automatic translation function. If you have any questions about this consultation, please contact the Platform4Dialogue team on info@platform4dialogue.org. |
