As a member of the Congressional Caucus for Women's Issues, I
understand the importance of women's security and its role in conflict
prevention and resolution. This is why in the 114th Congress I introduced H. Res. 528 that seeks
to create a Victims of Terror Protection Fund for the displaced
refugees, migrants and victims of Boko Haram's terror in the region,
many of which are women and children. One reason women play such a critical role in the peacebuilding
process is because they constitute half of every community. Educating women and men to work in tandem is an imperative step
toward instilling peace in communities and mending broken bonds.
