With the Reconciliation Award 2022, the German Klaus Jensen Foundation for civil conflict transformation honours the commitment of PeaceWomen Across the Globe to women affected by war and conflict.

In her laudation, Malu Dreyer, Minister-President of Rhineland-Palatinate and member of the Foundation’s Board of Directors, recognized the role that PeaceWomen Across the Globe plays in feminist peacebuilding. The participation of women in peace negotiations and peace-related political decisions is more than just a question of political participation or justice, she said. “It is also a central building block for sustainable peace.” PeaceWomen Across the Globe, she said, strengthens “the commitment of courageous women to a peaceful world around the globe.”

Founder and President of PeaceWomen Across the Globe Ruth-Gaby Vermot-Mangold accepted the 5000 Euro award in Trier on 30 September 2022.
