Empirical data have shown that the inclusion of women in peace processes increases the likelihood of successful outcomes and agreement longevity. Building off of commitments enumerated in UNSC 1325, UN Women and MiCT with NAMA - North Africa Media Academy are collaborating to promote female participation on issues of security, peace, and conflict resolution. Through training, production assistance, and the institution of a formal network of female media makers, this project aims to de-gender security reporting and public debate. Peace is a public good, and women are ready for a seat at the table.
