This Insight draws on comparative evidence and new ideas to discuss several \(potentially\) effective strategies for ensuring women’s meaningful participation throughout a ceasefire process\. This is particularly relevant in the cases of Gaza and Lebanon, where, despite the widespread evidence of devastating impacts that the wars have caused for women, the Lebanon and Gaza ceasefire agreements from 27 November 2024 and 15 January 2025, respectively, the preceding and subsequent \(extension\) negotiations, as well as the monitoring efforts were largely gender blind\. - [Trajectories of Exile Movements](https://www.inclusivepeace.org/resource/exile-movements/): For the past 20 years, the decline of freedom in the world and rising authoritarianism have driven more people into exile than ever\.

Nos conclusions sont compilées dans ce “non\-paper” de recherche\. ## Events - [Twitter Space: What does protection actually mean and why is it important when making peace?”](https://www.inclusivepeace.org/event/twitter-space-meaning-and-importance-of-womens-protection-in-peace-processes/) - [Human Rights Day](https://www.inclusivepeace.org/event/human-rights-day/): In 2022, the UN will kick off a year\-long campaign to promote and recognise the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights\. - [International Day of Commemoration and Dignity of the Victims of the Crime of Genocide and of the Prevention of this Crime](https://www.inclusivepeace.org/event/international-day-of-commemoration-and-dignity-of-the-victims-of-the-crime-of-genocide-and-of-the-prevention-of-this-crime/) - [GPW 2022: Increasing militarisation and feminist foreign policy: compatible or worlds apart?](https://www.inclusivepeace.org/event/gpw-2022-increasing-militarisation-and-feminist-foreign-policy-compatible-or-worlds-apart/) - [Leveraging Track II Peacebuilding in Yemen](https://www.inclusivepeace.org/event/leveraging-track-ii-peacebuilding-in-yemen/) ## Event Speakers - [Annika Bergman Rosamond](https://www.inclusivepeace.org/event-speaker/annika-bergman-rosamond/): Associate Professor \(Docent\) in Political Science and International Relations, Lund University Annika Bergman Rosamond is Associate Professor in International Relations at Lund University, Sweden\.
