OBJECTIVE
Promote awareness of the role of women in building community cohesion and peacebuilding
WHAT WE DID
ARK works with women-led civil society organisations in the southern Philippines to advance and promote the role of women in building social cohesion in their communities. We have provided capacity building training and mentorship to a coalition of fifty gender-focused NGOs and activists who are now leading education, advocacy and outreach programmes that work towards the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and Security.
