In this third session of the Coming of Age of the Women, Peace and Security Agenda, Centre Director Sanam Naraghi Anderlini will be in conversation with Major General (ret) Patrick Cammaert who led UN peacekeeping operations in Cambodia, Democratic Republic of Congo and elsewhere; Wazhma Frogh, Co-founder of the Women & Peace Studies Organization and a long time Afghan woman peacebuilder whose network extends throughout her country; and Cerue Garlo, a peacebuilder and civil society activist, and one of the unsung heroes of the Women of Liberia Mass Action for Peace campaign, to discuss what happens when the diplomats and politicians forge hasty elite bargains, leaving local communities and peacekeepers at the frontlines to face the consequences of their deals.
