Together for Detainees, IDPs and Refugees: A Syrian Women Call

29.04.2024

Organisers: The Center for Civil Society and Democracy and The Association Baytna Pour le Soutien de la Société Civile

The side event will leverage the extensive groundwork laid by the Space for Collaboration and its policy papers to shed light, through a gender-sensitive lens, on critical issues such as detainees and missing persons, refugees, and women's participation in the political process. The proposed agenda is as follows:

- Detainees and Missing Persons:
We are mobilizing stakeholders to collaborate with the Independent Institution on Missing Persons (IIMP) and bolster support for women and civil society efforts, including victims' associations, to address detainee-related challenges.

- IDPs and Refugees:
We are exploring concerns, challenges, and the pivotal role of women and civil society in fostering social cohesion amidst refugee populations.

There will be support for the UN-led Syrian Peace Talks based on SCR 2254 and Women's Participation in Peace and Security based on SCR 1325: Fostering sustainable peace by enhancing women's involvement in Syria's political landscape through supporting the younger generation and advancing local solutions for peace and security in Syria.
