Book on BARMM women’s experiences in armed conflicts launched

COTABATO CITY — Stakeholders launched on Tuesday the Bangsamoro Herstory book, which compiles narratives about the ordeals of women during armed conflicts in the region. The launch was reported by BusinessWorld.

The book was authored collaboratively by officials of the Mindanao State University (MSU)-Maguindanao with the help of contributors, including women from Muslim, Christian, and non-Moro indigenous communities. It aims to document their experiences and struggles during years of conflict in the Bangsamoro region.

The launch event in Cotabato City highlighted the importance of preserving these stories for historical and educational purposes. The project seeks to give voice to women often marginalized in conflict narratives.
