  • Summary

  • Welcome to The Difference She Makes, a new podcast by the Global Initiative for Justice, Truth, and Reconciliation that explores the ways in which women are uniquely affected by injustice and conflict through the lens of women activists themselves. Beyond the financial impact, the emotional scars of conflict are deep and long lasting. Women, whether they are survivors of war, displacement, incarceration, or systemic oppression, carry the burden of trauma, grief, and loss, not only for themselves, but often for their families and communities as well. Despite their resilience, women's experiences are often overlooked or sidelined in post conflict recovery and transitional justice processes. To help us understand the complex needs of women in and after conflict we are joined by two activists who support women in these difficult situations. Lauren Beattie is a climate and social justice activist and the program manager for the non profit Insight Garden Program at Central California Women's Facility, which helps transform the lives of incarcerated people through a connection to nature. Radhika Hettiarachchi is an independent researcher, curator, and peace building practitioner with over 15 years of experience working primarily in Sri Lanka. She uses oral history, facilitated dialogue, and the arts for channels for creating a public discourse on conflict, transitional justice, and non recurrence of violence. The Difference She Makes is a production of the Global Initiative for Justice, Truth, and Reconciliation, which is a flagship program of the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience. It was produced and edited by Katie Marquette at MediaMarq. Learn more at www.sitesofconscience.org
