The Office for Development Cooperation and Solidarity of the Universitat Jaume I with the collaboration of the UNESCO Chair in Philosophy for Peace has held the conference "Women and Peace Processes", which has had the participation of leaders in the field of peace building processes.

The inauguration was attended by Elsa González Esteban, Vice-Rector for Social Responsibility, Inclusive Policies and Equality of the UJI, who lamented the topicality of the theme of the conference and stressed the importance of the role of universities as a space for meeting, respect, reflection and creation of thought, knowledge and science, oriented towards the resolution of human conflicts by peaceful means.

This was followed by the inaugural conference given by Jesús A. Núñez Villaverde, co-director of the Institute of Studies on Conflicts and Humanitarian Action (IECAH), who pointed out that "the high level of conflict that we are experiencing on the planet, with Ukraine and Palestine as the main but not the only focus, is an example of the imbalances generated by an international order that has not been able to prevent its outbreak and which does not seem to be in a position to find effective solutions". In this sense, he added that the current model of international relations does not show sufficient political will to modify structures that generate more inequality, and that, furthermore, it is impotent in the face of violent dynamics.

As aggravating factors, he cited the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, the climate crisis and technological disruption, "which endanger the existence of human life as we know it". For this reason, Núñez stressed "the need to activate more powerful mechanisms for peace-building and conflict prevention based on alliances between existing international organisations, national governments and organised civil society actors", which also propose long-term strategies with the aim of combating the structural causes associated with outbreaks of violence. Along these lines, he pointed to development cooperation and humanitarian action as essential elements, in order to assist victims, alleviate the most brutal effects of violence, reduce inequality gaps and strengthen mechanisms for the peaceful resolution of conflicts. "In this field, the role of women is key both to generate militant awareness and to contribute their visions and knowledge to the common task", he pointed out.

Carmen Magallón, president of the Peace Research Seminar Foundation and member of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, then gave a lecture in which she highlighted the legacy of women peacemakers through a historical review of both prominent women and civil organisations and movements. In her speech, she stressed the importance of being aware of this historical tradition and the need to continue giving life to it in order to achieve ways of eradicating violence and resolving conflicts through diplomacy and negotiation. "Today more than ever we need to make the voices for peace visible, voices that open up a horizon of hope," Magallón said.
