Joining the Dots – Exploring the economic empowerment of women in conflict affected areas

The research was carried out in 6 countries in the Asia Pacific region, Fiji, Aceh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Pakistan and Kyrgyzstan by Asia Pacific Women’s Watch, JERA International, Australia and the Women and Media Collective, Sri Lanka.
A documentary was produced based on this research. It explores how four key human rights instruments could be applied in the context of women’s economic empowerment in post-conflict situations.
