Female political activists participated in Yemen’s uprising (2011-12) and in the National Dialogue Conference (2013-2014). However, they have been largely excluded from decision making in the ongoing war that broke out in 2014/15. Up to now, for example, almost no women have been among the negotiators in the U.N.-sponsored peace talks for Yemen. Yet, women leaders have been active to bring about peace. Many of them fled the country and continue political activities in exile. This research is based on an ethnographic fieldwork conducted with Yemeni activists and refugees between October 2021 and June 2022 in the Netherlands, Germany and Jordan. It proposes a deeper and more critical understanding of the role of women’s rights activists and refugees in post-revolutionary conflicts and peace processes. The study addresses the specific questions on how the situation of post-revolutionary violence and ongoing war has shaped their political participation, and how these women have contributed to conflict resolution and peacebuilding in and outside the country, how they influence homeland politics through political remittances, and what women transnational networks emerge and endure.
