#WPS25 #ActionWithWomenAndPeace #1325at25

At the 7th Action with Women & Peace Conference, ICAN’s Founder & CEO @sanambna.bsky.social delivered a powerful call to action: elevate #WPS leadership, ensure women’s full inclusion in #peace processes, & invest in frontline #peacebuilders. 🤝

#ActionWithWPS #1325at25

ICAN’s @sanambna.bsky.social at the Beyond Rhetoric launch called for 1% of the $2.3T global military budget to fund local #peacebuilding by women & civil society.

Even 0.1% ($2.5B) could transform justice, climate, & conflict solutions. ✊

#WPS25 #1325at25

At the @oxfaminternational.bsky.social & Researchers Without Borders launch of Beyond Rhetoric, @sanambna.bsky.social highlighted the need to rethink peacemaking: from sidelined diplomacy to militarism, she stressed designing inclusive processes & supporting local #peacebuilders. 🕊️ #WPS25 #1325at25

✨ Senator Mobina Jaffer closed the evening with a call to action:

“Imagine the future is peaceful — that will depend on each and every one of us. Nothing should stop us from taking on the mantle now and making peace real.”

#1325at25 #WomenPeaceSecurity

🎙️ @sanambna.bsky.social reminded us:

“Diplomacy is the art of the possible — but to create that art, you need imagination. We have to humanize security and put humanity at the center of what needs to be done.”

On Tuesday, ICAN & @afpeacebuilding.bsky.social co-hosted a webinar to share “The Odd Couple: Women Peacebuilders & Security Actors Bridging Positions, Building Trust.”🌍✊

We explored how #peacebuilders & security actors can collaborate to build safer, more resilient communities. #1325at25

In today’s complex security landscape, women #peacebuilders increasingly act as bridges — from community to institution, from dialogue to accountability. We’ll explore how trust can be built across divides.

📍 At the Colloquium on #UNSCR1325 in the Western Cape Provincial Parliament, ICAN’s @sanambna.bsky.social reminded us:

“Women have always been natural peacebuilders – not in an essentialist way, but in a very practical way.”

#SheBuildsPeace #1325at25

“The #WPS agenda isn't just about peace for women — it’s about women being central to peace & security for entire communities.” – ICAN's @sanambna.bsky.social

Thank you to #WASL partner Bernedette Muthien & partners for organizing the #UNSCR1325 colloquium.

#1325at25 #SheBuildsPeace

“The #WPS agenda was meant to be transformative—radical, imaginative diplomacy. To recognize peace actors, not just warring actors.”

At #1325at25, ICAN’s @sanambna.bsky.social reminded us that women #peacebuilders were there before we showed up. They’ll be there after we leave.

“We have the evidence. We have the practice. We’ve created the ecosystems.”

At #1325at25, ICAN’s @sanambna.bsky.social spotlighted the courage & innovation of women peacebuilders—negotiating with armed actors, taking real risks, & leading where others hesitate.

🎥 Watch this powerful reflection.

“Imagine if leaders had the courage women #peacebuilders show daily—to face adversaries & recognize their humanity.”

ICAN's @sanambna.bsky.social delivered a powerful keynote at the #1325at25 conference.

🎥 Stay tuned for more clips!

👏 Thank you to the hosts.
