Join a group of Expert Panelists for this unique WIIS Webinar discussing the international impact of the Syrian conflict, and specifically the experiences of women in conflict, based on the main themes of the film For Sama.

“For Samais an intimate and epic journey into the female experience of war. A love letter from a young mother to her daughter, the film tells the story of Waad al-Kateab’s life through five years of the uprising in Aleppo, Syria as she falls in love, gets married and gives birth to Sama, all while cataclysmic conflict rises around her. Her camera captures incredible stories of loss, laughter, and survival as Waad wrestles with an impossible choice– whether or not to flee the city to protect her daughter’s life, when leaving means abandoning the struggle for freedom for which she has already sacrificed so much.”

Why is this conflict still relevant today? What steps can members of the international community take to address the repercussions of this conflict? How does one reconcile the individual impact a civil conflict of this magnitude has on individuals, and especially the gender dynamics of the conflict?

Through a discussion with diverse practitioners, academics, and experts, WIIS seeks to provide an answer to these questions, using the film For Samaas an inspiration.
