Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 47718, member: 636"] Women from eight villages completed special training to help build peace across West Gonja Municipality. The Savannah Regional Peace Council organized the three-day program at Unity Centre. UNDP Ghana helped run the event with money from Luxembourg and Denmark governments. Fifty female participants learned skills for community leadership and conflict prevention. The program focused on making women stronger voices for peace and development. Trainers taught participants about early warning systems for conflicts and basic peacebuilding methods. Women practiced leadership techniques and decision-making approaches during sessions. The curriculum emphasized how female perspectives strengthen governance and create lasting peace. Queen Mother Mbitiwurche Alijata Haruna praised women as the foundation of peaceful communities. She suggested future programs should last one week to reach more participants. UNDP analyst Melody Azinim explained how conflicts hurt women and children most severely. She noted that peace talks rarely involve female voices despite their important role. The project aims to give women confidence and tools for participating fully. Economic barriers often prevent women from joining governance and peace efforts. Supporting female empowerment creates better outcomes for entire communities. Participants showed strong commitment to sharing new knowledge with their home villages. The training achieved its goals through active engagement and practical skill development. Women demonstrated readiness to become mediators and community leaders. The program represents a major step toward inclusive peacebuilding approaches. These efforts will strengthen democracy and stability throughout the region. [/QUOTE]
