00:11.980 --> 00:13.840
- We are here at the Women, Peace, and Security Seminar

00:13.840 --> 00:16.370
^in conjunction with Flintlock to talk about gender.

00:16.370 --> 00:18.860
^Talk about gender in the way that it impacts our operations

00:18.860 --> 00:22.120
^to the way that civil society organizations engage with it.

00:22.120 --> 00:23.980
To just have a better understanding of what this means

00:23.980 --> 00:26.240
we're trying to counter violent extremist organizations

00:26.240 --> 00:27.690
and violent extremism itself.

00:29.300 --> 00:31.810
^What we hope to gain from this collaborate discussion

00:31.810 --> 00:35.850
^is to start having the conversations with our inner agency

00:35.850 --> 00:39.723
partners including Department of State, USA ID,

00:39.850 --> 00:43.303
and African Nation partners as well.

00:43.710 --> 00:46.750
We need to start having these discussions at a international

00:46.750 --> 00:50.290
level, so that everybody can come together and solve the

00:50.290 --> 00:53.693
challenges that we face in these communities together.
