Peace Ambassadors Project – Empowering Women for National Reconciliation
Overview
The Peace Ambassadors Project is a flagship women-led initiative advancing reconciliation and social cohesion in post-conflict Syria. It empowers women as key actors in peacebuilding by equipping them with the skills, platforms, and networks needed to lead dialogue, mediation, and community initiatives that foster unity and mutual trust.
Approach
Implemented across Northern, Coastal, and Southern Syria, the project engages women through structured dialogue sessions, intensive training in conflict resolution and negotiation, and community-based reconciliation initiatives. Trained Peace Ambassadors facilitate local “Roundtable Dialogues,” bridging divides between diverse communities and promoting inclusive participation in shaping Syria’s future. A national reference document on women’s role in reconciliation and peacebuilding is being developed to guide future policy and practice.
Impact
The initiative contributes to rebuilding Syria’s social fabric by amplifying women’s voices and leadership in peace processes. By combining capacity-building, dialogue, and local action, Peace Ambassadors creates lasting pathways for inclusion, reconciliation, and community resilience — positioning women at the center of Syria’s national recovery and peacebuilding journey.
