Consultation on Women & Security
WIIS Brussels has been hosting special events under the title Consultation on Women & Security – focusing on migrant, refugee, and exile activists – and for the first time, we bring part of this powerful conversation to the podcast.
Throughout this unique process, we explore personal definitions of 'security,' how the concept is evolving, and the vital role communities play in shaping safer environments. In September, WIIS Brussels members and friends of the Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung European Union came together for an event that invited participants to share stories and reflect on security from a deeply personal perspective.
In our pursuit of inclusivity and diversity, this edition of Consultations on Women & Security features two incredible women defending the rights of refugees, migrants, and exiles: Silsila Mahboub and Seyran Khalili.
This episode was recorded on September 12 2024 and features:
- Silsila Mahboub, an Afghan refugee living in Bulgaria, is an activist, human rights defender, entrepreneur, and public speaker who has dedicated her life to advocating for refugee women's rights in Europe.
- Seyran Khalili, a Kurdish-Norwegian human rights activist and a program manager at New Women Connectors, a social change movement that advocates for feminist ideals, and is led by migrant and refugee women who share common experiences and strengths.
- Sofiia Shevchuk, a member of the Steering Committee with WIIS Brussels.
In this episode, Silsila and Seyran share their personal journeys, their evolving understanding of security, and provide valuable insights for policymakers on creating a more secure and inclusive world for all.
