Sobre IBD

A compelling and deeply personal account, 'Women’s Power in Crises, A Kosovo Experience' speaks to the global struggle of women, peace and freedom in a world that attempts to disempower them. Suvira Chaturvedi shares her unique experience working as Head of the United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) and Chief Technical Adviser in Kosovo, in partnership with the broader United Nations system and the international and local community including women’s organizations in a post-conflict environment following the war in 1999.The author highlights the context and the devastating effects of the Kosovo conflict, particularly its disproportionate and negative impact on women. She underscores the strategic moment it presented to the United Nations to ensure a post-conflict recovery equally integrating Kosovo women as key actors. Suvira Chaturvedi shines a spotlight on how she and the UNIFEM team galvanized the inherent power, voice and dynamic leadership of women to actively engage in Kosovo’s post-war development in a turbulent time.The book captures the immense challenges and important breakthroughs of women working for peace. It is a call to action-to recognize and strongly support the agency of women and their critical role in bridging ethnic divides and building equitable, economically secure and peaceful societies.
