A meeting of representatives of Libyan women groups and women activists facilitated by the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL), with the support of the European Union, will convene in Tunis, Tunisia, on 21-22 April 2015 in the framework of the political dialogue.
The women’s track will include briefings by women participants in the dialogue tracks on the progress of the talks.

The women will also have the opportunity to discuss the opportunities and challenges for Libyan women as well as their role in sustaining any future political agreement.
