Women play a significant role in peacebuilding and mediation but their voices often remain unheard. Magda Zenon, a Cypriot member of the Mediterranean Women Mediators Network (MWMN), in collaboration with UN Women, is launching #HerStories, a new podcast series aimed at increasing the visibility and amplifying the voices of women mediators and peacebuilders. In each episode a different member of the MWMN will narrate her story.
