In the early period, women and youth groups relied on domestic fundraising. When women’s role in peace building was recognized and accepted, they were then able to access funding from IFAs, mostly as seed grants or through the participation of foreign-funded projects. With their advocacy work through media, radio, website, publication, forums, and workshops, these women groups were widely recognized in the public sphere. Moreover, the development of media groups has also contributed to women in the Far South by enhancing their recognition at a wider scale.
