The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) increased awareness and knowledge among key stakeholders on how exclusion exacerbates violent conflict; (2) greater understanding of how policymakers and others can facilitate more inclusive, gender responsive approaches to conflict; and (3) strengthened international action and policies to support inclusive peace processes and political transitions.
