On the anniversary of the death of Vesna Kesić, feminist anti-war activist and journalist from Croatia, her feminist comrades are continuing annual online bilingual meetings that would bring together feminist thinkers and practitioners from the post-Yugoslavia spaces and beyond. We are planning this second meeting to be the conversation about the feminist peace movement & anti-war movement on the territory of Yugoslavia during the ‘90s and beyond. Our goal is to hear from various histories of experiences about feminist values of the anti-war movement, who were the models of inspiration before us, as well about solidarity for women across the borders. How feminists interpret and use the terms “anti-war movement” vs “peace movement”.

Based on the experiences of the feminist peace movement, we open a discussion with all participants how experiences from different war zones are transferred, how we act in solidarity, what we should do today at the international level.
