WAGE is a global consortium led by the American Bar Association Rule of Law Initiative in close partnership with the Center for International Private Enterprise, Grameen Foundation, and Search for Common Ground. How do these organizations continue working in volatile contexts to advance the Women Peace, and Security and Women’s Economic Empowerment agendas? In this talk, representatives of WAGE Sri Lanka initiatives from Search and Grameen will come together to discuss how they have collaborated within the consortium and the activities they have accomplished so far in these contexts. The participants will also share their observations of interesting and unexpected results and offer the lessons learned for similar programs.
