Inclusion is at the heart of lasting peace: Persons with disabilities are not just part of the conversation they are skilled mediators and active peacebuilders. Through mediation training, PWDs are now Certified Professional Mediators (CPMs), equipped to resolve conflicts, champion dialogue and strengthen peaceful, inclusive and resilient communities. Nothing about peace without everyone at the table. @denmarkinkenya @tendasasa #WomenPeaceAndSecurity #Mediation #Inclusion #PWDs #Peacebuilding #WPS

From national commitments to local action: Mombasa County has begun the journey to localize Kenyaโ€™s National Action Plan (KNAP III) on Women, Peace & Security (WPS). Through the IMARISHA Project, KECOSCE has commenced consultations with the Mombasa County Gender Sector Technical Working Group, bringing together the County Gender Department, State Department of Gender, CSOs, IPOA and KNCHR. The process will translate KNAP III commitments into a practical, inclusive and locally owned County Action Plan, strengthening womenโ€™s meaningful participation and leadership in peace and security. @tendasasa @denmarkinkenya #KNAPIII #WomenPeaceAndSecurity #WomenLeadPeace
