Networking and Partnerships

The development of strong networking relations with women's civil society organizations is crucial for FAS. Conferences and other events in support of women's issues are an important means of consolidating and expanding these networks and partnerships.

Networking

with organizations and institutions which share FAS' goals in furthering African women's peace movement ensures the most efficient use of resources; avoidance of duplication and overlap; and allows for every opportunity for action to be seized.

Partnerships

with institutions and their programmes involved in peacebuilding, reconstruction and development are also important for FAS to strengthen its agenda for the benefit of women. Strategic partnerships have been fostered with stakeholders, including policy makers, implementers within governments and UN agencies including the Regional Gender Programme of UNDP.
