The WMC was launched in 2018 and aims to increase the participation of women mediators in all areas of mediation through global advocacy, peer learning, mentorship and support.

Launched in July 2018, the WMC network brings together a diverse community of practice of almost 50 conflict mediators from all Commonwealth regions with experience across the community, national and international spaces of mediation. The network aims to increase the participation of women mediators in all spaces of mediation.
Through strategic mediation support, global advocacy, peer learning and mentorship the network collectively address the key barriers facing women mediators.
The WMC is funded by the UK Government’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, in support of the commitments made during Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting 2018.
