Magsaysay Awardee Miriam Coronel-Ferrer on being a woman peace negotiator
Manage episode 408138701 series 2910470
Then-President Noynoy Aquino took a risk when appointing a woman as peace negotiator with the male-dominated MILF. But the decision bore fruit with the historic “comprehensive agreement” with the MILF in 2014.
Miriam Coronel-Ferrer talks about the cultural biases women face around the world, including the Philippines despite its high global rankings in gender equality indexes. She explains how many Filipino women in Muslim Mindanao and elsewhere ended up in public office.
“The more women are able to show the world that women can do it, (biases) become less and less of a problem,” she asserts. But she adds that their struggle needs the voices of feminist men. “Men need to hear from other men.”
