WOMEN AND PEACE-BUILDING IN CONTEMPORARY AFRICA

Africa has continued to reflect negative indicators in terms of issues of women, peace and security considering the intractable violent conflict situations that have covered the continent’s landscape since the end of Cold War and return to democratic governance.  To be sure, women’s participation in the democratic processes has been as abysmal as to provide the temperament for their non-inclusion in formal peacebuilding initiatives that were set up at the end of violent conflicts. That is not to say that women have not contributed to the democratization process because women actively participated in the fight against the recalcitrance of the military in Nigeria and some of them paid the ultimate price in the restoration of democracy.
