We’ve got a busy year planned and we will be running three Fellowship Programmes in 2022/2023:

• 21 – 29 August 2022 Women in Conflict 1325 Fellowship Programme: The Arts as a Tool for Peacebuilding

The programme will focus upon the role and use of the creative arts as a tool for peacebuilding and is open to women from the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia who use the arts and/or creative mediums in relation to peacebuilding and conflict resolution. Throughout the week-long residential programme we will explore how different artistic mediums can be used to foster peace, justice, and to promote gender equality. We will also look at how the arts can be used as a tool for inclusion and the meaningful participation of women in peacebuilding and conflict transformation, and the direct and indirect roles that the arts play in conflict environments. The programme takes the form of workshop/discussion-based sessions and provides space for participants to learn with and from each other through sharing experiences and knowledge, and examples of successes and obstacles faced in their work. This programme will take place in Edinburgh and The Scottish Borders, UK.
