  "summary": "The Nigeria Women for Peace and Democracy Summit 2026, held in Abuja ahead of the 2027 general elections, brought together over 3,000 women leaders, policymakers, diplomats, and civil society actors to discuss the pivotal role of women in peace, democracy, and inclusive governance. Hosted by the National Council of Women’s Societies (NCWS), the summit aimed to position women as key actors in democracy, not merely as beneficiaries. The Minister of Women Affairs and Social Development, Imaan Sulaiman-Ibrahim, emphasized the federal government's commitment to empowering women through transformative policies and programmes, including strengthening women's leadership, expanding protection for survivors of gender-based violence, and promoting women's participation in peace, security, and governance. The summit also recognized outstanding women leaders through the Nigeria Women for Peace and Democracy Awards, celebrating their contributions to peacebuilding, democratic governance, and nation-building.",
