Eid Mubarak from all of us at FCA Uganda. Wishing you and your families a blessed and joyful Eid Al-Fitr.

At the United Nations in New York for the 70th session of the Commission on the Status of Women. Over 676 million women live near active conflict, yet 9 out of 10 peace processes exclude women negotiators. That must change. In the video, a message to governments: invest in partnerships that help women access justice, heal and lead. Women’s voices don’t just belong in the conversation, they are the conversation.

Building common ground starts with bringing the right people to the table. This week in Kiryandongo District, together with @fca_uganda we convened introductory meetings with district leaders, security actors, and community stakeholders to launch the Peacebuilding and Climate Action project. The engagements created space to clarify roles, strengthen coordination, and build a shared understanding of how local institutions and communities can work together to prevent resource-based tensions and support resilience. #PeacebuildingandClimateAction
