📌 Day 2 of the Technical-Level Consultation in Addis Ababa moves from policy diagnosis to impact design.
💡 Building on the structural gaps identified yesterday, participants are exploring how the Youth, Peace and Security and Women, Peace and Security agendas can be connected more effectively and how their contribution to governance, peace and security can be measured over time.
🧩 Today’s work is introducing the Common Impact Framework and supporting the development of practical indicators, feedback mechanisms and policy tools that can contribute to the Outcome Document for the 5th Continental Dialogue in Bujumbura 🇧🇮
