Mapping Women-led Peacebuilding and Conflict Resolution Initiatives: Exploring Their Experiences and Challenges in Pakistan
(UMT.Lahore, 2025) Rimsha Bashir
Peacebuilding has become a crucial process to avoid bloodshed and accelerate the establishment of long-lasting peace and tolerance. Particularly, women’s contribution to peacebuilding and conflict resolution is more critical. However, there is a scarcity of documentary evidence and mapping of women-led initiatives in peacebuilding and conflict resolution in Pakistan. Bridging the gap in existing literature, this research is aimed to map the women-led organizations, working on PB& CR in Pakistan. Using secondary data sources and a thorough desk review, the research compiled a list of relevant PB & CR organizations in Pakistan. A qualitative research design was adopted, using an exploratory technique to explore the women leaders’ experiences, effectiveness, and challenges associated with the local women-led initiatives for PB & CR through 20 Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) with 9 organizations from four provinces of Pakistan.
