Women Peace Makers (WPM) is a leading local organization working on the intersectional issues of gender and peacebuilding in Cambodia. Founded in 2003, WPM envisions a peaceful and gender just society where everyone, regardless of identity and ability, can reach their full potential and live free from violence. To achieve that, WPM works to support the empowerment of women and youth, transform conflict, and prevent violence by providing creative tools and space for dialogue, deeper understanding and strategic intervention into issues of gender and peace. Today’s WPM is the culmination of over two decades of actions and learnings in the field. We explore inter-sectional issues and intervene in areas where we can positively contribute to positive transformation by developing interventions that incorporate gender and peacebuilding elements, informed by theory and critical analysis of issues that the people we serve wish to change, transform, learn from, or replicate in their communities. We also serve as a knowledge hub, taking our lessons to others that might benefit from them in their own contexts, including communities, local organizations, and government bodies. Known for using innovative conflict transformation approaches, WPM works with all actors and seeks to build relationships, seek out window for transformation, and provide space to foster more listening and understanding. WPM is grounded in its approach and community voices inform all of its continued learning and strategic directions. Currently, WPM works at the local level with grassroots communities and youth networks, at the national level with civil society and key stakeholders, and at the regional level with other NGOs, universities and gender and peacebuilding networks.
