Initiative for Inclusive Security
The Initiative for Inclusive Security, a program of Hunt Alternatives Fund, advocates for the full participation of all stakeholders, especially women, in peace processes. The Initiative for Inclusive Security includes The Women Waging Peace Network, a network of women peacemakers from conflict areas around the world. The Network was launched in 1999 to connect these women with each other and with policy shapers.
Recently, Inclusive Security has increased its capacity-building efforts, specifically targeting women peace builders in conflict regions around the globe. Inclusive Security documents women's contributions to peace processes across conflict areas worldwide through primary research, including a series of case studies.
