ASEAN Women Interfaith Dialogue: Promoting Understanding for an Inclusive and Peaceful Society

The ASEAN Institute for Peace and Reconciliation (ASEAN-IPR) held the ASEAN Women Interfaith Dialogue, to promote understanding for an inclusive and peaceful society, in Jakarta from 12 – 13 November 2019. The main objective of this dialogue is to share experiences and best practices on how women can contribute to, and ways to strengthen their roles in managing diversities as well as identify common challenges towards diversity and inclusivity, and its way forward. The dialogue also served as a platform to engage members of the ASEAN Women for Peace and Registry (AWPR), a registry of ASEAN women involved in peace processes and conflict resolution, as well as to reflect on the ASEAN Leaders’ Joint Statement on Women Peace and Security of 2017.
