International Peace Day, established in 1981, is commemerated on September 21 as a reminder of the importance of nonviolence, reducing wars, and destruction.

In this context, Prof. Dr. Sci. Zilka Spahić Šiljak, the academic director of UNIGeRC (University Gender Resource Center) and director of TPO Foundation, appeared on N1 Television.

She discussed the neglect of women’s contributions to peacebuilding, noting that while women are actively involved in peacebuilding at the local level, they are often absent from negotiation tables at higher decision-making levels.

She also introduced the UNIGEM project and its achievements in integrating a gender perspective into higher education.
