About this listen

All of us deserve the right to have a say in decisions that affect our lives. That’s true even in the middle of a war. To make sure global leaders hear from women directly affected by violent conflict, Women for Women International conducted landmark consultation with more than 6500 women survivors of war across 14 countries. In this episode, Nisha delves into some of the surprising findings in the research,From Asking to Action. We’ll hear from some of the women who conducted the survey, and we’ll also speak to Paivi Kannisto, the Chief of Peace and Security at UN Women about why it’s so important for governments to listen to women in conflict.
