Migration is not only about movement — it is about recognition. In Equivalence: Innovation for Migrants in Portugal, authors Mariateresa Garrido, Andrea Guadamuz and Anabell Mora Acevedo explore how technology, when rooted in dignity and inclusion, can support migrant integration and peacebuilding. Developed by a multidisciplinary team of migrant women, Equivalence helps translate skills, experience and professional identity across borders — transforming invisibility into opportunity. 🌍 This initiative is closely linked to the work of the UPEACE Global Center for Peace Innovation, highlighting how innovation, technology and social creativity contribute to peace. 📖 Read the full article on Ideas for Peace (link in bio). ✍️ Are you working on peace, migration, innovation or human rights? We invite researchers, practitioners and students to submit their work and publish with us. #IdeasForPeace #MigrationInnovation #Portugal #Inclusion

✨ We’re back in 2026. We start the year by highlighting how Indigenous women are reshaping agrarian futures through local action. In Costa Rica, access to land, food sovereignty, and the defense of Indigenous knowledge are deeply tied to peacebuilding. The ReAL initiative shares the experiences of Indigenous women’s groups who protect their territories, revitalize cultural practices, and strengthen food systems as pathways to peace. 🌱 These local actions remind us that peace is built from the ground up. 📖 Read the full article on Ideas for Peace (link in bio). ✍️ Are you working on peace, sustainability, human rights, or community-based action? We invite scholars, practitioners, and students to submit their work and publish with us. #IdeasForPeace #IndigenousRights #CostaRica #LocalAction
