April 27, 2024, Lalitpur – The two-day workshop “Strengthening Advocacy and Accountability for Transitional Justice” on April 26 and 27 was held in Lalitpur, Nepal. It was designed to reflect their experiences and better equip conflict survivors with effective advocacy and strategic negotiation skills in the transitional justice process.
In addition to the theoretical and practical understanding of advocacy and negotiation skills, a specific session focused on women’s role in peacebuilding efforts and emphasized the importance of implementing UN resolutions 1325 and 1820 to ensure gender-inclusive processes.
