The Arab League and Cairo International Center for Conflict Resolution, Peacekeeping, and Peacebuilding (CCCPA) held a joint training for members of the Arab Women Mediators Network (AWMN) on “Women Mediating Access to Resources in Climate-Affected Contexts” with the support of UN Women Arab States.
The training, which concluded on 3 October 2023, aimed at equipping AWMN’s members with the skills and knowledge to advance gender and climate-sensitive approaches to resource-based conflict mediation towards sustainable peace and development. The training also recognized the crucial role of women and the disproportionate impact of climate change on them in this context, according to the “Daily News Egypt” website.
The training was part of implementing the MoU signed between the Arab League and CCCPA in March 2023 and built on previous cooperation, including the first in-person training course held for AWMN in November 2021.
